Re: [Chrysler300] 300-F - Turn Signal Question

[Ray Jones <hurst300@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mike;
I'd start with checking the voltage in the sockets (or nearby 
connector) on the lights, in both "On" and "Acc." positions. since the 
rate of blink is determined by the current usage, it seems that you 
have low voltage in the "On" position, and higher voltage in the "Acc." 
position. Sort of like adding a trailer to the circuit, and having the 
lights blink faster. If that's the case, you have what we in the know 
call a *&%#!!
Then you have to trace the wiring back and find out why.
I assume that you have changed nothing, but you may have had some 
varmints sharpening their teeth on your wiring while wintering in your 
"Rodent Winter Haven".

I have never had any problems with the turn signals on my ""F". But... 
now, all of a sudden the right turn signal isn't working properly. The 
left works fine, normally.

  All bulbs -- left and right -- illuminate okay (this is the first time 
the turn signals have been activated since last fall).

  When the right turn signal is activated with the ignition switch in 
the ON position, the front and rear bulbs stay illuminated for 
approximately 8 seconds before they blink. This interval remains as 
long as the turn signal is activated.

  When the right turn signal is activated with the ignition switch in 
the ACCESSORY position, the front and rear bulbs blink almost at a 
normal rate, just a tad bit slower than the normal rate -- barely 
discernible as being longer than the left turn signal.

  This mystifies me completely.

  Any ideas, suggestions, causes, cures would be most welcome!
