On sunday, we got a snow storm here in Arkansas. i was on the interstate heading home, i was doing maybe 35 or 40. i had no problems at all, untill i switched lanes. When i switched i must have hit a patch of ice or something. My car spun, and went backwards into the ditch that separates the two sides of the interstate. The rear end of the car hit one of the wire cables on the divider, it scratched up the bumper and broke out the lens on my right rear tail light. it left the bulb intact and it still works. Now when i use my right blinker, my right rear and front blinker blinks really fast, even the blinker notification on the dash flashes really fast, but my left blinker still operates normally. Whats wrong with it? Some sort of electrical damage? My car is a 2006 Chevy Cobalt ls coupe, if that helps.

 

Icy roads will do that

 

The g-forces from spin caused your wiper to be thrown out of sync. You have to re-clock your wipers relay module in order to get it to blink at the proper speed.






















Or maybe your bulb blew.

 

Don't believe all these jokers.
All you need is new blinker fluid.

 

Or you could be low on blinker fluid, or the bulb is needs replacing

 

Blinker fluid eh, you must have nothing better to do.

 

There's a lot of threads on this subject, use the search button or expect to get flamed

 

Any way. Welcome to Cobalt land, Once you enter there's no escape.

 

I literally just joined, i didn't realize there are threads on the subject already.

 

There is a bulb out somewhere the system isn't sensing the bulb so it goes to hyper flash until it is fixed, made to let you know one is out.

Just try searching in the future because you'll normally get people like that.

 

Hmm thats strange, the light still works though.

 

Take it easy on him guys, he's from Arkansas.

I mean, look at his screen name.

"Now entering Arkansas. Turn your clocks 50 years back"

 

how do people who work on cars not know that? the filament is broken to some extent, just replace the damn bulb

 

I don't understand, did i do something wrong here? Whats With all the negative comments?

 

Welcome to CSS.net!

We're just messing with ya. Find a good come-back

 

its just kind of obvious is all, sorry we like to troll new members some. yeah even though your bulb may work the system still thinks its out. replace your taillight assembly and bulb

good thing you pulled out of the crash ok, there was a massive pileup near chicago this last week

 

troll? It's more like hazing.

 

sure its not just the tailight working and the blinkers not? its a dual filament bulb.

 

is this how we keep survival of the fittest in here only

 

But how riceburner survived the world will never know

 

well i started a thread and asked that question since the search button failed me and people said it was mostly due to decent genetics, timing, and that i grew up in a semi-sheltered neighborhood

 

Being a sheltered child would explain why you're always on here, not really at work but in your basement with a full setup of 3 screens to be the first poster and what not.

 

keep calm and continue not trolling as well as meh

 

At least I tried all mighty one

 

This site has a lot of non nice people
