Switched Turn Signals - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

The previous owner of my car (a '95 SE) rewired the turn signals so that the side markers blink instead of the front signals. The problem is, this makes the signals blink rapidly (as if one of the bulbs were out) which is very annoying. I've been trying to fix the wiring so that it's back to normal, but since I have no idea what I'm doing, it's proving to be quite difficult. So I was hoping someone here could help me out by telling me which exact wires I need to rewire. Thanks in advance.

You could try putting turn signal bulbs in there in place of the regular one-wire bulbs. Maybe that'll make it so you don't have to mess with your wiring.

change your flashing unit

or

repair the wiring that was ghetto-modified.

if you dont know how to work on wiring, dont touch it. talking on a forum wont help, you'll have to pay someone to do a reputable job.
