not sure on post/ blinkers problem

[Ant_nee03]

Ok I wasn't sure whether to post here or to post in lighting... so bare with me. Recently whenever I turn on my left blinker it doesnt blink. it just clickes very rapidly and doesnt work. before it had done this but only for small incriments of time. now it does it all fo the time and wont go back to normal.. I don't know why it is doing this and was wondering if anyone had any clue as to how to fix the problem. It doesn't even work even when I put on my emergency lights... the passenger side blinker works fine and I have had no problems... Also my horn has not worked for a month or so now and was wondering about that too.It stopped for a week then worked, then it stopped again. Hopefully I can get some help and I thank you for your time.

loose connection somewhere, or blown fuse for the horn.

could be the same for the turn signal, but it could also be because of a blown bulb. front and back are not working? or just one of them is out. if a bulb is blown, it will blink fast like that to let you know.

mine did that this winter and now it doesn't do it anymore...i'm guessing that one of the connector plugs was corroded a bit, so i cleaned them all up.

neither front or back work, I'll take a look at the bulbs tomorrow thnx. Hope its as simple as that.

happened to me last week (left signal blinking real fast, not the front bulb though), i thought it was the flash filament on the bulb (because when my headlights were on so was the parking light filament), but it was a white corrosion on the metal part of the bulb and inside the socket, i cleaned both pieces with my wire brush tip on the dremel tool, poof!, worked like a charm, blinkers are back to normal

ok changed the front bulb with no luck didnt see any corrosion on the front but there was some on the back gonna clean that up and replace the bulb and hopefully that works.. is there a fuse for it? I have the manual but I'm not having any luck finding anything on blinkers except how to replace the bulb which is common sense.

I'm thinking it may be a switch because not even the light in the cluster comes on it just makes the clicking sound really fast with no lights.
