    When engaging the left turn signal, the signal-light (and blinker noise) is rapid (about twice as fast as the right turn signal)....I'm assuming this is a relay switch gone bad but can not locate the relay/fuse panel. On page 96 of the manual it shows the smaller fuse box...but for the life of me I can not find it in the car (I know were the larger fuse panel is located)...any help would be greatly appreciated. PS..."J" on pg 96 is the relay I'm looking to replace (is that correct, or should I be looking at something else?) thanks...Stephen

    It's not a faulty relay. It just signals that one of your turn signal bulbs (on the left hand side) is out.

    Yes - and I think all cars do that, to alert you to replace the bulb.

    Safe bet. Replace the bulb.

    Remember that in front there are two turn bulbs on each side. Only one has to fail for you to get the rapid signal.

    On the 348/Mondial T, how are the front bulbs accessed? I've changed the rear bulbs since they are easy to get at through the rear trunk of the Mondial. I take it that the front lenses don't pull out the front, even when the screws are out, at least mine don't. Trying to reach the bulb from behind did not present an obvious route. Can someone provide me with a clue?
