I recently installed a pair of euroclear headlights and during the process i removed the side turn signal/marker lamps after removing the plug/bulb assy from the housing. i attempted to turn on the turn signal and to no avail there was no flashing action on either left or right. now i am confused because this is with everything else still installed bone stock. so as i continued to complete the installation i am still having the same problem. there is no sign of flashing on either side. i am unsure if they even are supposed to now because nothing had changed in the circuit prior to the install of the new lights and they still weren't flashing then:dunno:... if anyone has any advice or at least a reasonable explanation that would be awesome thanks for reading and have a great day.


P.s. oh one note i left all of the factory wiring and factory connectors and bulbs

KingspadE:

I'm not exactly certain what all your "Euroclear" headlight conversion entails, respective to installation. In short, I don't understand.

If, as you say, you removed the "side turn signal/marker lamps," I rightfully suspect you have an open-circuit condition in the system. Expect to reverse some/all of your procedure to correct the malfunction.

Post of pic of the Headlights that you put in. Your first sentence was not very clear so we don't know if you took the bulb out or not. If you did take out the bulb, then there will be no flashing. Check the back to see if they are blinking fast. That way you will at least know if the system is working.

Sometimes those headlights have the signal in a different location and might need a rewire.

Also, are you sure the bulbs worked prior to you working on them. Look at the bulbs to see if the filaments are intact.

PS. Are the signal lights in the bumper working?
