I know mine flashes way to fast if a bulb is burnt out on a side! It has somthing to do with the bi metalic strip/ contact in the relay,it needs to match the amp draw of the flashers.may be another ground issue? The bi metalic strip is two different metals having different expansion rates under heat that are bonded together making it curl under heat/amp load. It may be the wrong one if it is,simple fix compared to chasing grounds. I have the whole slider door that I replaced the glass is still good and latches, if I can figure out how to remove it without damaging,pay shipping and its yours!

On loan from a Vietnam draftee. Fortunately he returned to collect it back. It had the reserve gas tank lever and no fuel gage along with other luxury features. Now as novice owner of the Yellow Sub (82' camper diesel na) I am working towards my own registration tags -- Maryland State Safety Inspection. Thanks for all on this list who helped me so far. Five new spec tires. The oil pan now welded, installed and holding oil. Many more fixes you can guess. The Inspector says: 1 - *Rear Brake Drums* are worn below spec. Who has these? Not the pads. Drums. 2 - *Turn signals flash way too fast. * I checked bulbs and corrected the size. Is this a relay issue? 3 - Needs a *replacement side sliding window *in side door Mine is plastic, cracked and has no latch lock. Sources welcome. Is anybody parting out who can help? . Frank
