Afiyy Neutral Newbie January 18, 2013 Share January 18, 2013 Lately my signal light been giving me problems . When I signal left , first few times it will start to flicker but after a while it stop. Same goes to when I signal right . To my surprise when I on Hazard Light both working. So I went to ZMC @ Serangoon there and the guy told me probably the switch of the light is faulty due to cause of wear and tear but the thing is they don't have the item. Its pretty dangerous to drive especially at night when your signal light is faulty. Anyone experience this before? Roughly how much will it cost to replace it ? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TVT Supercharged January 18, 2013 Share January 18, 2013 Does it happen sometimes, or all the time? Probably the flasher replay is faulty or connectors are dirty. The part should not be expensive...but finding the part itself may be a problem if your car isn't common here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to say but i can say its "ON and OFF" Sometimes it flickers on the dashboard screen and sometimes it don't Just got a call from the workshop they said that they don't have the item too :( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe all you need to do is replace the signal lights relay. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you might be aware, there are two levels of singanalling in BMWs, the first one is short one and goes off after 3-4 blinks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I like most is the side mirror auto adjust down so that you are able to see the blind spot on the ground when reversing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi_torq Neutral Newbie January 18, 2013 Share January 18, 2013 I also faced similar situation once with Kia. Signal light didn't work. Switched on hazard light and after that signal light started working. Don't know what was wrong. Nobody could find out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That guy is right! Since yours is a Proton and no more under warranty, you should do the repairs in Malaysia (JB). It is cheaper and spare parts easily available too.
