Subject:UPDATE on burned out turn signal
Date:Mon, 27 Sep 1999 22:13:24 -0500

Hey thanks all for the burned out bulb info when the flasher is going
fast.
Here's what it's turned out to be-
Took off both front turn signal  housings to find that they were both
about 3/4 filled with
water!! Amazing they were working at all. Both sockets where the wires
connect are completely rusted
and corroded. The one that is still working has a completely corroded
wire and connector broken off!
Anyway...I'll be looking for these replacement sockets at the dealer
next weekend.
In the meantime, check yours and make sure they are not filled with
water too...Maybe you'll catch it
in time.
Keep Vanagoning!
Tony

PS...Any list vendors have these replacements? I need just the sockets,
but will take the whole housing for both sides if you've got em...THANKS
