    On a 328 right blinker works properly until headlights are turned on. With headlights on blinker stays illuminated/does not flash. Indicator inside acts the same. Headlights off then back to normal. Thx

    So you put this question on ferrarichat before you even checked the bulb.....


    The world of car enthousiasts IS changing..

    I guess the next question is why it is off half of the time?:):):)

    Point being why do some people on fchat make assumptions and comments implying "enthusiasts" don't wrench or check things before posting. With a bulb illuminating and not burned out the bulb was not an immediate consideration. I made several inquiries and searches on fchat before posting.
    Your comment comes across as a little rude. You may not have intended it that way but it was taken that way by many. I guess that old saying applies, If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all.
    I posted the conclusion so that anyone searching in the future would have the information available to them. To me that is what fchat is about.

    How considderate! Next time my Light Will not function I surely Will look at this thread. Very useful info:
    "When a Light does not work considder the bulb"

    And now you call me rude? Apparently you think everybody is stupid.

    I guess I have to agree with the earlier assessment, what a tool. I am done wasting time on this.

    I must admit that having a bulb that stays lit when it shouldn't, it would have taken me a long time to suspect the bulb. It must have been the flasher filament shorting to the brake filament.

    Despite what others say, I wouldn't stop posting here.
