leaving for a 800 mile trip need help/ turn signal

[CARMINEOWEN]

I'm leaving 4am tomorrow morning from CT to NC... I noticed my left hand blinker isn't working while the right one is fine. Under the right Hand side cover there is a (relay?) that makes a normal clicking noise when engaged to the right but a winding sound when to the left. I'm assuming it needs to be replaced. Where can I get it fast?

Pick one up from Kragen, O-reilly, Autoparts etc. Either a standard or electric type should work if stock flashers.

Kragen has a round shaped electric one that is bright yellow translucent that works a treat & fits well behind the side cover.

You'll have to cable tie it to the mount. Check out your wiring first in case you have some other issue.

If the flasher works on the right side then the flasher unit is most likely operational. It sounds like you may have a faulty bulb on the left side or a bad connection.

Bingo! check bulbs and grounds

And make sure the bulbs are of the proper size/wattage/voltage. The stock flasher unit wants to "see" a certain load. If there's not enough resistance it will not flash.

Worst case revert to hand signals....harder to see at night though....
