Yes another blinker thread.

My blinkers work great on the driver side but as I only get like 3 blinkes out of the passager side then blower the fuse. Rear passaager taillight blinker/brake light is aslo dim. Hazzards work fine. Not shure why? 81 k10

Re: Yes another blinker thread.

Are they standard bulb or LEDs? In either case, check you ground wires. I had an issue with my LED blinkers and it turned out the ground wire wasn't ground well at all.

Regular bulbs the tails are grounded good on the driver side spot. I cleaned the paint off and reinstall it. I have a feeling it's the front passer side thats giving me the issues. I have some extra lights tied into that side power. They have thare own ground.. Going to go over it once it's nice out again

Pull those "extra lights tied into that side power" bulbs and see if the fuse blows.

That's the plan. I made them just Unplugs so go me. Lol
I. I still don't see why the extra light would cuse the tune sigle fuse to blow thare not hooked to the blinkers just the running lights and they work fine. Unless it's it's actual socket I put in. The old dorman one was garbage.
