<DIV><FONT face="Trebuchet MS" size=2>I am wondering if I am having a problem with the Directional Signal Flasher Switch inside the Headlight assembly - as when I push the left turn signal button in, it has an audible sound, and a somewhat fast click to it, but on the right side, when I push in the button, sometimes the lights come onbright, then not at all or when the lights barely come on, the Directional SignalFlasher Switch is much less audible and slow in clicking?</FONT></DIV>

turn signal(s) problems
Hey Everyone,</P>
I found and fixed the problem.</P>
It was in the right turn signal "button" switch.</P>
Once I removed the old one and soldered on the new - it worked like a champ . . . .</P>
"THX" to each of you, for your interest and replies!</P>
