Accord blinker turn signal relay clicking FAST when not actuated
Hi there. I have a 91 accord and about a month ago I started hearing
a rapid random clicking when I was driving that sounded like the blinker relay clicking . It seemed to settle down when I put the turn signal on, which is every time I make a turn or lane change :^) Now it's clicking out fast all the time, except when I put my turn signal or hazard lights on and then it clicks like normal blinker speed. It seems like the relay maybe but I got a new relay (from Advance, it fit anyway..) and put it in and it didn't help. Does anyone know how this system works? I checked and all my blinker lights are working. Thanks in advance for any assistance!! |

Many cars use flasherers that has an "outage" feature. This means that
when a bulb burns out and less current is flowing through the flasher... it flashes real fast to alert the driver that he's got a bulb out. Your situation sounds like you have a phantom small current draw in the flasher circuit and the outage feature is engaged on a constant basis. Professor www.telstar-electronics.com |
