Hey guys, I have another problem. My left turn signal indicator on my instument panel doesnt work. My right blinker light works, but my left on doesnt. The blinker itself blinks, it just doesnt blink on my instrument panel. Does anyone know what I need to do to fix this problem. Thanks, Matt Tully

I had the same problem and it ended up being a bad bulb. You can pull the cluster of lights out the back of the dash and replace the bulbs individually.

FYI - if you've got LED rear signals, the indicator light being burnt out is enough to make the flasher flash really quick just as if one of the actual signals was burnt out.

Where do I get the indicator bulb, from a dealer or can I go to the local autoparts store.

When you see the price and then the size, just suck it up. But yea they have them at the dealer.

The bulb is so small I can not read a manufactures number. Take the old one out and if you can read it you may find a replacement number. BUT Good luck.

Go to your foreign car auto part store and ask for Sylvania # 2723. Comes in package of two bulbs. Been there done that.
