The bulb is bad. Turn signals and flashers use different bulbs.

How do you know if your blinker has a short in 2004 Subaru Legacy If you switch it on slowly it works?

If it had a short it would blow a fuse. You probably have a faulty flasher relay.

Why would your turn signals not work on the rear of your truck when the headlights are on?

Generally, the tail "light" and the tail light "blinker" are two different bulbs. Check the blinker bulb first. If it is OK, then it is likely a fuse to a flasher unit.

No, the flasher relay has nothing to do with starting the vehicle. It only controls the flash of the directional lights.

Why would the blinker be acting up when you put it on to turn the blinker wont flash on the outside or inside of the car and the flasher blinks double time outside lights work Could it be the flasher?

First of all let me say that most vehichles have 2 flashers, 1 for the hazzard lights and 1 for the blinkers. If you turn the blinker switch to either side and lights inside and out do not flash or light up then the most common problems are a blown fuse or the blinker switch itself could be bad. As for the hazzards blinking double time, it is possible the flasher could be going bad. One other possibility, autos that have had trailor light hookups installed have been found with bad grounds and/or wires that have rubbed into causing tail,blinker and stop lights not to work correctly


Why would the blinker not light up if the bulb is good and the fuse is good?

Check the relay. Turn signals work off of a flasher. Replace the flasher they are usually cheap. If that does not fix it check the signal switch. That is the thing that you use to turn on the turn signals. That is usually the problem.


Where is the blinker fuse located on a 96 Chevy cavalier The fuses inside the car are fine the blinkers don't come on in the car?

The fuse for the blinker of a 96 Cavalier should be in the fuse box inside of the car. A more likely cause would be the flasher, located under the drivers side of the dash.
