Turn Signal
Thursday, June 22, 2006 7:30 PM
My right turn signal is going twice as fast as normal and the left one. It just happened today, I didn't touch any wiring on the car, just drove to and from work, then to a friends. I have no aftermarket electronics in my car, and have never tampered with the wiring.

i believe that means that the bulb is going to go out.

i know the cavaliers had some kind of recall on the tailights i believe. i dont know if the sunfires were the same.

Check your turn signal fluid levels, sounds like the right side might running low.

Seriously though, check to see if one of the blubs on the right side is out, normally that's what it means.

if its not the bulb check the socket....that recall people talk about is on the socket.... the metal contacts corrode right off/apart. it sucks...i just replaced one myself. if you think its the socket just go to a local dealer and show them, they should replace it, maybe even both like me

lol
it says right in your manual
when the dash light flashes fast like that it means the bulb is burnt out or something is disonnected.

It just came loose in the back, I just wiggled the cables and it is fine now. It didn't even seem like it came out.

it could still be the socket, i did the wiggle...and it worked again for a while, but its doesnt last for long. just to make sure take the socket out and check the metal contacts to the bulb. one of mine was completely missing lol
