clear corners...

[ALTRNTV]

i ordered clear corners from procarparts.com and when i hooked them up, only my left one worked, before i installed them, the stock amber ones were working fine.... what's wrong?? also.... when i turn on my left or right signals, the taillights in the back and the bulb in the clearcorner that's working are flashing alot faster, sort of like hyperblinkers... anybody have this problem before? i need to get my right clearcorner bulb working, and yes, i tried replacing the bulbs

I got the same set... its the wiring harness. I think even Sam from Jspec doesn't recommend using the wiring harness that comes from the cheap clear housings set he sells from Taiwan.

Takes 5 mins to take the wiring harness from your stock ones and putting them on the new one. Shouldn't be a problem... throw away the ones you got from ProCar Parts... they're garbage. I complained to them awhile ago when I bought it from them and they're like "Well that's good to know" yet they don't tell everyone else. :rolleyes:

Are we talking about the turn signals on the fenders? How much are they? I pulled my fender out to remove a fist size dent. Well.... when I took the signal housing off, it fricken broke on me. What I expect for a 15 year old housing, brittle plastic.:mad:

From what you said, I gathered that the tail lights are untouched and that as you said only one of the clearcorners are working. The way the circuits work for blinkers are that if a certain resistance is not met on the circuit and it is broken (circuit) the blinker module will send a faster cut off/on of the power to warn that the signals are not working.

What are the ones on my fenders? I have not got mine running yet and do not have a battery on it right now to find out what it's fuction is. Please tell me what they are. I have seen them in clear on some 240's. I don't know who makes them though. Anybody know?:(

Look at his sig, I think he's more concentrated on audio mods than engine mods.
