Passat (B5) :: Turn Signal Not Staying On / Blinks Once Then Go Out
Apr 21, 2007
While I was driving this morning, I noticed that my turn signal was not staying on. Basically it would blink once and then go out. No ticking either. Seems like some kind of short. The hazard light blinks but with an irregular pattern.

This seems a little odd, but I noticed that the right turn signal blinks much faster than the left turn signal. Is that a VW thing or does that indicate some other issue?

I have a problem with turn signal. When I switch it on it blinks one or two times, and then stops. It is for both directions. Where might be a problem? The switch or relay?

Had an issue arise today where out of the blue my turn signal decided to turn on and stay on... and i do not mean it was blinking as if i was going to turn i mean solid on, no clue what caused the issue, the stalk is still in the middle position, and when i turn the other side on (passenger/right) it blinks normally, now if I turn the hazards on they both come on and stay on solid, this problem does not even stop when i pull the key out of the ignition, I have to remove the negative battery strap for it to turn off completely.

I'm having a weird issue with my passenger side turn signal light. It's more of an annoyance than an actual problem. When I turn on my headlights both yellow turn signal lights also usually turn on but the passenger side one is not turning on anymore. The odd thing is that it still blinks as normal when I engage the turn signal. I replaced the bulb but it did not resolve the issue. I'm thinking it's an electrical short somewhere. It's not the wiring in the headlight housing because I tried an old housing I kept when I replaced my headlights last year and I still had the same issue. What I should check first?

I noticed the turn signal light on the passenger side and mirror staying on. Wether it's started or off. Locked or unlocked. Don't know what the issues could be. Front one not on though
At the dealer now. I have 600 miles on it so I'm assuming it will be warranty covered.

2013 RX 350, how to add this feature to give 3 blinks or more with partial movement of turn signal lever.

The turn signals stop blinking after a few blinks on my 2001.5 Passat 4Motion. There are no burned out bulbs, no aftermarket lighting, nor any aftermarket audio. The problem also happens when using the emergency flashers. The lights will blink for as little as two or as many as 15 blinks and then just stop. Is this a relay switch? Where is it? Can I get to it without taking the dang dash out of the car?

Took a little road trip this weekend and now my ESP light won't turn off. I was on the highway in cruise control doing about 70mph, the light flashed, however i was not slipping or losing traction. It has stayed on since even after I shut the car off. No CEL. its a 1.8t FWD

I have a set of OEM HID's. I noticed that thesignal lights blinked in double time when I had them installed. Only one of the signals out of the two in each headlight blink however. A friend told me that the reason the HID's had 2 blinkers per headlight is because the HID's are so strong they require both signals to work to overcome the headlights. For those of you that have OEM HID's, do both your signals work? Being that mine don't, do you think that is the cause of my signals blinking in double time?

I get home from a business trip today and the wife picks me up in someone elses car. Why? Because the turn signals on her 2002 Passat went out. None of them work.
When you push the signal lever the arrow lights up exactly one time, you hear the familiar turn signal click exactly one time and then nothing....nada...zip.
I just got in a while ago so I haven't had any time to begin checking fuses. I'll look at it in the morning when I've got some light.

In my new to me 05 B5 we have a problem with the turn signals. When turning right the signal works fine but once you return straight and the lever returns to center the relay or something in the center console continues to cycle for 2-4 cycles afterwards. Also, if on cruise, and you activate the left turn to pass, it kicks off the cruise. I suspect it's either the lever or the slip ring on the column (if it has one like my 96 Passat).

It is a pretty simple problem, but on a few occasions the "clicking" noise that goes along with the turn signal blinking will not stop after turning off the signal. It does not click at the normal cadence. It erratically clicks on and off and will continue to do so for 3-5 minutes. Neither the turn signals nor the indicator lights blink, but the clicking continues in the dash. Turning the signals back on puts the clicking into normal speed, but once the signal is turned off it goes back to crazy speed. It only happens once every couple months, but it is really annoying.

I just got a 2003 1.8T Passat about a week ago. I have already installed a new HU and put some subs in it. I haven't really had the chance to test the headlights while driving because I haven't driven after dark since I got the car. When I used the headlights today some strange things were happening.
When the headlights are turned on the right signal comes on and stays on until the headlights are turned off and doesn't pulse. If I try to use the right signal while it is stuck on it makes the indicator clicking noise once then the noise stops but the light stays solid the whole time.
If the headlights are off and I try use the right signal the signal works fine but the instrument lighting pulses with the signal and I assume I haven't noticed this because driven only in the light I probably just never noticed.
The left signal behaves completely as it should as far as I know in all conditions. The hazard lights are also behaving oddly but I'm thinking it's because of the problem with the right signal.

It makes a noise as if I have my turn signal on, although when the turn signal aren't on, the ticking sound continues. I replaced the whole unit, and it did not fix it. My Dad says it has to be a bad Turn Signal Relay, but where do I find one in my car? How will i know that it's that? Is there a diagram of relays anywhere online?

Is there any way to disable the clicking sound made when the turn signal is on?

I've blown my turn signal fuse for 3 times until the relay burned out. Now I have had cleaned turn signal switch (with CC) from all of the old stuff in there and replaced hazard switch. But it happens again! After 5 minutes driving, both fuses (7,5 AMP for turn signals and 15 AMP hazard) blown out. I'm afraid there are some shorts in wirings.
I'm looking for the wiring diagrams or any other users experience in this matter... Where shall I start from?
There was a water leakage behind and under drivers seat. I removed trims etc. to lift the carpet to take the Comfort Module for checking as there were some weird thing in overall car electric systems (central locking, saloon lightnings, electric windows and dropping gauges on instrument panel. I found a small amount of water in container, where the module is placed, but on the electric parts weren't any water marks... Also it's impossible to connect to the CCM via vag-com.

a friend has a 1999 passat and recently, the left turn signal has ceased to work. I searched and found that the hazard switch/relay commonly goes bad and can cause the signals to fail. It seems though, that in most cases reported on vortex, BOTH signals stop working, and sometimes the hazards too, or they will erratically flash giving a warning before the relay dies. This is not the case with this car. Driver side signal only.

So I had to replace a front ten signal bulb the other day and with almost no pressure, one of the small plastic tabs on the bulb socket broke off when I was trying to seat the new bulb into the headlight housing. The plastic socket looks like it's own piece that's removable from the wiring harness, but my dealer tells me it comes as a kit with the whole headlight housing and I'd have to replace the whole thing.

My turn signal relay clicking and stuttering randomly. When turn or warning signal used it operates normally with absolutely no problem and sounds healthy. But when not used and supposed to be quite - it goes again. When stuttering - there is absolutely no indication other than clicking sound that something is wrong.

I see a lot of VW Passat 2006 who have the turn signal lights on all the time, like this. How do I get them like that?
