problems problems and more problems

hey guys have a few for you,
firstly, the left blinker is acting up. sometimes it works like it should and sometimes it will blink really quick in and out and some times it will blink quick in and out with a slight pause in between. is it the flasher that needs to be replaced? bulbs do flash both front and rear.
second, remote door opener.. my friend gave me his accord one KOBUTAH2T i think it is... well the light flash like it opens but it does not same thing with locking.. it sometimes opens and most of time doesnt..
third, when i use the automatic locks inside, sometimes the driver on does not go down. but if i push the lock down myself, all doors lock with it... i programmed the damn thing like 4 times now.. and still same thing...

HELP PLEASE!!

cheapest and easiest thing first, replace the bulbs to see if that fixes it. Do you have aftermarket led style bulbs in it?

Get a acura fob, if only the drivers door doesnt lock it may need a new actuator, but i would start out with a new fob for the acura. Manually pushing on the lock knob WILL lock all 4 doors.

I had a problem like that with my turn signals. The problem with mine turned out to be that the wires that plug into the lamp socket had become dislodged and were only making contact intermittently. I probably should have replaced the plug, but I just put the wires back where they should go and packed a load of dielectric grease in there to help hold them and it hasn't given me any problem since -- although I think what I did was not a permanent fix.
