ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

    Corner light not blinking anymore?

    Hey guys, so I messed around with my corner lights and replaced one side today, and it turns on, but when I signal it doesn't blink with it anymore. The other side still works perfectly fine, any idea what I did wrong?

    You didn't use JDM blinker fluid did you?

    What do you mean you messed around with them? You changed the bulbs? What kind?

    Probably need to un-mess it around

    C-3PO's MRT USDM yo!

    then i see my baby, suddenly I'm not crazy,
    It all makes sense when i look into her eyes

      Probably should have been more descriptive, sorry! I didn't really "mess around" with them, I just wanted to stick some LED's in and see what they look like but I didn't really like it so I switched back to the OEM bulbs, but when I did, they wouldn't blink anymore.

        Hmm... that is weird. Are the contact points that holds the bulb in place actually making contact? Try getting a flathead and pushing them a little towards the inside of the socket. And put the bulb back in.

        Make Sure you do it with the lights off. Or you can blow the 15amp fuse.

          Will do! Tomorrow morning, I will update the thread when I try it again thanks Quashish. Do you also find it a pain in the ass to twist it back in or is it just me?

            I think it is the bulb expanded the socket, I ordered some bulbs and they came with green LEDs so I tried them out for shits and giggles and it was a tight fit. My friend said he had a use for them and we put them on his car, same socket but it did not work because it was too loose. The socket shrunk the LED connector. Your problem may be the opposite of what happened to me and the female socket expanded from forcing the LED in.

            BTW, Quashish, the LED white parking lights are bright enough that I could get away with the cops by using them as headlights.
            Be unique, like every other person.
