Blinker Problem
Hey i was wondering if anyone knew much about the blinkers on a 96 se. The side blinkers don't blink, but when i arm my alarm my headlights and blinkers blink like they should so my question is. Why do they blink when i arm my car but not when im turing? If anyone could help me it would be aprreciaded (sp?)

Check the blinker fluid level. If it'* low, you might as well replace it with the halogen stuff.
Is it an aftermarket alarm? it could be the wiring associated with it, or the car'* original blinker module could be messed up... ? Is it just the front corner blinkers that don't work, or the front middle, or the rear?

Don't mind John..he'* still sore at the person that suggested he change his muffler bearings.
The reason it flashes on the alarm is that the alarm only sends a flash to it. The problem is most likely the blinker module which looks like a little tin can and is located above the driverside hush panel (above drivers feet). Look to the right of the steering column up in there..a nice little metal looking can wtih two wires attached. That'* it. Most likely it'* bad.
