Talking So check out my retarded turn signal (video)


I installed my JDM bumper and as you know, my indicators have been removed. its tucked inside my jdm bumper but still has light bulb in it.
Now it does this /\
Does anybody have similar issue like mine? could this be due to fuse? it only happens when im on the brake.

That's all sorts of ****ed up dude, you see that kind of crap from the GM turn signal switches when they go out, I don't think all of our lighting power is routed through that switch and is instead relayed, but it would be worth it to look into. It bridges multiple circuits which is the weird part, you've got the brake, turn, and running lights all crossed up, as well as non-functioning plate lights (if you reinstalled them in the new bumper).

You may have a major wiring break in that rear section of the lighting harness (that would have been fiddled with to mount the bumper) that's shorting all of those circuits together. Only thing I can really think of that's situation relevant. I'd take the bumper off and look for any wire loom that looks crushed or damaged and start there. Also make sure all of your grounds are grounded to the chassis and not somehow into the rest of the wiring.

Are you sure it started after you installed the bumper?

Pretty sure you have a case of the Gremlins..

When you say indicators, I assume you mean the side blinker indicators on the factory bumper? Just curious but if they're not in use, why did you leave them? It would also be nice if you posted another, longer video with that intoxicating idle.
