Hey guys. Kinda embarrassed to post this but my front left turn signal is not working and the blinker is going super fast. I painted my grill and the inside of my headlight and put everything back together, but the only thing that isn't working is the blinker. Checked the wires, connectors, and the bulb but couldn't find anything wrong. Anyone have any ideas as to what else I could check? Even tried changing the bulb out, but nothing.
 
If the interior signal display is showing a fast flash then one of the bulbs is either burned out or not seated correctly. Take the bulbs out and push them back in firmly, they should kinda click into place.
 
Tried re-seating it several times, with different bulbs too, but still not working. I wonder what happened. There isn't a separate fuse for the left and right blinkers are there?
 
Doubt this is the problem since everything was working fine before the dis-assembly but are you using LED bulbs?
 
The hazard light blinks on all corners except front left. I think i may have connected something wrong or a pin came out when reconnecting cause like pmanliu said, everything was working fine before disassembly. Using regular bulbs. I was just hoping to avoid taking everything apart again, but looks like i may have to...ugh...
 
I doubt that taking your headlight out will find anything. Have you look closely at the plug & connector and compare it to the right side?
 
Problem solved. Bit the bullet and took it apart again, and look what I found...

Anyway, everything's back to normal now. Thanks for everyones input and help!
 
Well glad you got it fix, but what's got to do with your turn signal not working. That's weird that the headlight connector would caused a problem for the turn signal.
 
Driver's side front turn signal bulb blown, bought the replacement but can't figure out how to access the bulb to replace. Tried reaching in but couldn't contort enough to get to it. Can somebody give me the first grade, step by step, help an old guy out, instruction? I appreciate any assistance.
 
The turn signal socket is just to the left of the grey colored leveling actuator. Reach in, grab the socket, and turn it counter clockwise to release the socket & bulbs from the back of the housing.
