blinker doesn't work, but makes the sound it usually makes, only faster

Asked by Lumina576 Jan 15, 2007 at 07:16 PM about the 1996 Chevrolet Lumina LS Sedan FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My blinker sometimes doesn't work (no lights either outside the car or on the dashboard light-up), but it makes the sound a blinker makes, however at a faster rate than when it's working normally.
What is wrong?

Hello Lumina576-- It sounds like you have a bulb burned out somewhere. Replace the troublesome bulbs before even thinking of moving on to more expensive options. I think this should work. Good luck from Bovan.

I have a '99 Chevy Lumina LTZ, and for the first couple of years that I had it it would never really heat up until the past two years, when I noticed the temperature gauge actually moving. Anyway, when it heats up(needle in the center or right in the gauge), my car shakes and it shifts really hard. Any ideas? It has 172,xxx on it, and I'd like to get another year or so out of it without replacing anything major. 2 Answers

The bulbs are good and I think all the fuses are too. Where do I look next.
