When I use my turn signals it flashes a quick white then my orange. They are orange off so they should not flash white at all.. If I have my parking lights on they flash normal.. any ideas?

The only thing I can think is a faulty bulb, is it both of them? Does it do it every time?

Are you using the LED flasher module to avoid hyperflashing? Also make sure the rear bulbs are working.

You are better off with the electronic led flasher than the resistors.

Well I guess my husband says it is the electronic led flasher. He needs to make up his mind, now what should I do?

It's not my car when it happens to others..

Okay here are the videos to see the difference. The white flash looks like it goes away and comes back but it don't. It's just the video.

What it's suppose to do: http://s363.photobucket.com/albums/oo73 ... 0_3188.mp4

What it does with the lights off: http://s363.photobucket.com/albums/oo73 ... 0_3192.mp4

what i find realy odd is that both of your cars are doing it. do eather of you have LED corner bulbs (the ones behind the reflecor) or just standard element bulbs?


i am with steve on swapping them out for a normal bulb and seeing if it soed the same thing. with a normal bulb you still have to elements so you would see if ti still flashes strangly.

Yeah we both have LED corners.. We just bought new led corner bulbs so we can try that later. If that don't work we will try a normal turn signal bulb.. if we have any lol
