1. my front blinkers wont blink but they are on...

2. one side of blinker blinks really fast while the other is normal (happened after i blacked out headlights..)

3. i blacked out my headlights and now my lights are having alot of outburst to the side of headlights (not brights on ground), it barely lights up the road at nights and it can be dangerous on dark roads..

4. radio doesnt work, wont pick up a signal, i bought a new antena thinkin the old one was messed up but that is not the issue, can i get xm radio without being able to get regular radio?

thanks and sorry i searched but only found similar issues, but couldnt find a resolution..

 

did you spray the reflective housing behind the bulb black?>?

 

Can you pull it up a little closer to the computer? I can't quite see it.

Pardon the sarcasm but these self-initiated problems are difficult to diagnose remotely.

Perhaps someone here has had the same experience and may be able to offer some suggestions.

 

after you played with the headlights, did you get the right bulb in the right socket?


fast-blinking blinkers generally indicate that the other bulb on that side is burned out, missing, or the wrong bulb.


The cause of your problem seems. . . obvious? Yes, surprising though it may be, blacked out headlights don't emit as much light as stock. After you recover from the shock of this newfound knowledge, go and unblack-out your headlights and your problem will be solved.


It depends on why your radio doesn't work. How did you buy a new antenna, since the TL doesn't have a normal radio antenna? Where did you put it? does anything else on the stereo work? As for your question, yes, XM and terrestrial radio use two different types of antenna.

 

the person that sold me the car said he bought a new antena.. my blinker light turns on but it doesnt blink

 

also, is there any way to keep the cooling fans on without turning the a/c on?

 

Why would you want to? They are thermostatically controlled. They only come on if the temp gets too hot.

 

You can either hit auto or manually set the fan speed and then hit the A/C button twice to disengage the compressor. I do this all the time during the winter since I do not want the compressor hitting constantly when sitting in traffic. I only let the compressor run when I need to de-fog the windows.

 

Oh. My bad. I thought you were talking about the radiator cooling fans.

Yes. You can turn the a/c off by pushing that button. The display will confirm "AC OFF".

 

And yes everything else on my stereo work beside the radio, i have a navi
