My mk4 jetta is causing me a hell of a fuss right now. The rear turn signals and the signals in the fenders are working but the front signals are both out. The signals blink fast as if it's a bulb but both bulbs and all fuses are good. When the hazards are on, they blink normal speed but the front lights are still out.

View 3 RepliesThe issue I am now experiencing is my passenger headlight would only turn on once in a while . The driver side headlight would work just fine both high beam light also . Today I opened my hood I verified the cable had a poor ground to the headlight I noticed a burnt smell after checking the cables . I turned on my high beams both sides turn on . Then out of no where my turn signals both (Left - right - back and front stopped working. Including the Hazard lights both front and back). The cluster would not show neither turn signals turning on ( left-right ) I noticed that my headlight turn signal on the passenger side would turn on but not blink it would stay dim only when . I pushed the hazard light button . My cluster would show the right turn signal ( no clicking no flashing arrow ). The driver side would not work either. What can I do to fix the problem? I know that I will not be able to drive the car due to the issue.
View 5 Replies'04 Jetta Wagon TDI I just bought for my brother and his family. The car is in unbelievable condition even with 206k on it. I have met my match in automotive anal-retentiveness as there's not even a door ding on it. The tech who did the pre-purchase inspection wanted to buy it from me before I'd even paid for it!
The Hubster drove the car home after paying up and found that the "tink-tink-tink" sound from the turn signals continues on after the signal has been turned off. It's much worse when using the right turn signal than the left. It often does it for no logical reason, like when driving on the highway.
I owned a '00 VR6 GTI for 12 1/2 years (bought new) and never had this problem so I'm at a loss. We want to give the family a trouble-free car and are hoping this is an easy and inexpensive fix, not one of those really expensive .
Last weekend my headlights, wipers, turn signals, AC, and horn stopped working. Through searching and another post I narrowed the issue down to my ignition switch. After taking apart my steering column and getting the switch out, I found this...
The house which is connected to the switch, with the one of the red wires obvious fried....
So I'm hoping this problem and I'm wondering who else has had this happen. When I took apart the ignition switch itself, nothing appeared to be damaged. No burns no broken pieces, etc. the metal post on the outside corresponding to the fried wire on the housing was corroded, but that was it.
I think I need to replace the housing since all that plastic melted and I chipped it away to get to the connector. I can't seem to get the connectors on the wire off of the metal connectors that are supposed to be in the housing.
Yesterday my 2003 VW Golf TDI turn signals stopped working. The hazard/emergency lights do work. Also, when I push the signal lever forward the brights don't engage. Does this sound like a bad relay or blown fuse?
View 6 RepliesGot in the car this morning and my headlights,windshield wipers, and turn signals would all not turn on or work.
I'm not sure if the this is a problem with the stalks on the steering column or possibly a relay.
When i pull the left stalk my high beams will come on but only when i do that.
The windshield wipers would not turn on at all and the windshield wash would not even spray as well.
I also noticed that my AC/Heat controls wouldnt respond either. Any clue as to what it might be.
How to fix or solve front turn signals that are not working? I just realized that both the front signals on my Prius doesn't light or flash when making a turn, the rear are working fine. Is this an easy fix or should I bring it to the dealer?

View 17 RepliesI disconnected my DRL's (because I have HID's so they don't work) so I am currently using my parking lights (front turn signals, rear brake lights) as my DRL's, however my problem is that the front turn signals are not that bright, so what I can do to make them more visible during the day...

View 3 RepliesOk so I have a 2014 F-150 Screw fX4 with the projector headlights. 13356.0 km as I sit in it. I had turn signals the other day, but now none. I had the dealer disable the lamp outage to remove the hyper flash issue with led's. Sockets don't look burnt or anything everything is new. So here is what is working.
- mirrors turn indicators
- rear turn signals
- dash turn signals.
I have reinstalled my OEM bulbs and still have the issue, only my running lights are on the front. So it has power.
2 days ago I changed my driver side wheel bearing and put in a new cv shaft
The axle nut may have been somewhat over torqued but nothing crazy over the spec.
Everything else is as per spec.
My problem is that every time I turn left slow fast sharp not sharp it's making this good awful noise.
It is not a constant squealing. It's every rotation. On off on off on off. No bearing humming or anything when driving straight or turning right. Just left. I'm pretty good at solving pretty well anything with my gti but this one has me stumped

Below in this photo-shopped picture the camry headlights have clear reflectors for the turn signals ..
I am going to be doing a HID retro , and I want to swap out my reflectors for some clear ones. Anything or anyplace I can get large non-vehicle specific reflectors and i can manufacture my own ? I want to keep the car as legal as possible, after my illegal retro (all retro's are illegal )

I hit the frame of my garage door about 6 months or more ago which partially pulled off the front bumper area and knocked the right turn signal lens and headlight out of whack. My handyman fixed it up, by using good quality baling wire so the turn signal and headlight etc worked.
Then, I did the same thing a couple of weeks ago. (I was trying to avoid hitting my bicycle which I had just had reconditioned for an ungodly amount of money) My handyman is unavailable to fix it again. I have gotten stopped once by the police for the malfunctioning turn signal so it was time to get it fixed.
Mechanic (same one as previous posts) said it will cost 1500 to replace the bumper area etc so the front turn signals will work. He absolutely insisted that the turn signal wires cannot be reconnected. He reattached the bumper area "temporarily". I am willing to pay to get the turn signals functioning but do I need to replace the whole bumper assembly unit?
Does this seem plausible?? I just want the turn signals to work. I do not care about how it looks. (I drove the car in the interim with a bright yellow bungie cord holding the unit together)
1999 F250 super duty. I am having a problem with the front right turn signal not working. The indicator on the dash also does not work but I can hear the relay clicking double time and the rear signal works. I have changed the bulb and fuses and went under the dash and the column to be sure a connection had not come loose. I have looked through the forums to try and find an answer with no luck. What to try next?
View 4 RepliesI noticed today that though the small single LED visible to the driver flashes when you signal, the apparent row of lights on the back of the mirror does not. Is the clear stripe across the back of the mirror that most cars have to augment the directional signal just decoration on the GTI? Or does it only light up on SE and Autobahn models?
View 11 RepliesI just noticed this driving home tonight and I have no idea when they stopped working. I have a few guesses.
1 : I installed puddle lamps and either didn't plug something in OR when they were coded something went wrong.
2 : I have colored side markers with no bulbs and they are somehow connected.
I have a 2003 Excursion 7.3 2WD Limited and all of the sudden experienced a number of issues all at once.
1. Turn signals stopped flashing (hazards still flash)
2. Lost Rear back up sensors
3. Lost overhead trip computer
4. Lost Rear A/C - switch does nothing
5. Front A/C now only blows through the defroster vent
I've checked all the fuses and cant find any bad ones.
I replaced the multi-switch flasher and turn signals still dont work - only hazards.
I have a set of retros with dual turns. I was wondering how to go about wiring up the turns as my city lights (i have a euro switch). Is there a diagram of the wiring anywhere?
