Title: right turn signal light
Post by: 86charcoalsierra on May 12, 2010, 04:10:40 pm
I got a 86 sierra classic that when i push the brake the right turn signal turns on but it dont blink and when i let the brake go it turns off. The brake light fuse keeps burning out what should i look at first.

What does work? Do you have park lamps & turn signals? When you push the brake and the right signal turns on is it on in the front and the back?

when you say turn signal do you mean at the tail lights or in the cab on the dash?

Have you replaced your flasher? What happens when you put the hazards on? If the hazards work, then swap the hazard flasher with the turn signal flasher and see what happens. If it works=bad flasher.
