Thanks for all the info guys. Had to work a long day, stopped and got the updated flasher relay for the dash, I hope this works because I want to take out the resistor that I added 10 years ago or so, Also some one asked am i using a LED designed to be a flasher, Yes I am. Its a two part LED its normal white until the signal is activated and it switches to yellow. The clear combo with the HID headlights looks sharp a bit more modern.



There's 2 flashers, one on the drivers side one on the passenger side. One is for the turn signal flash and one is for the emergency flashers. I don't remember which is which. I had problems with this for a week or 2, the one I bought from the local parts store didn't work. I had to buy one off Amazon and the first 1 or 2 didn't work. J Gunsett says United Pacific part number 90650 works for him so I would start with that.

Hey steve could you tell me what wire you looped? I just got done replacing both sides with an updated flasher and yes I still dont have a a left turn signal.

That's the last one I ordered off Amazon. I don't think it worked. By that point I had tried 2 from local stores and was getting frustrated nothing was working.

That's the last 1 I bought off Ebay, the exact listing. Its the last flasher I bought/tried so its probably what fixed mine.

I wanted to give an update on the led turn signal bulb issue I was having. I tried all 3 of the led 2 pong switches that were recommended, the amazon was the one that worked for me. I dont know why....it did. I also wanted to share the two way bulbs I went with as they are white when lights are in parking mode (which makes the stock lens color look like fog lights from the driver seat) then blink orange when activated.

This are another version of "Switchback" led sets covered in cave.

Having "bright" park lights on front can be problems. In Fiero...

Cops anywhere can see have Fog Lights On and many states ban this outright or restrict them to bad weather only. Even when allowed, must be On w/ Low Beam HL On. Having Fog/Driving Light w/ High Beam can get you stopped too.

Park/Turn Lenses/Fixtures are not made to be a For/Driving light & can't focus the bright bulb so creates glare problems for others & even you driving in bad weather. Similar reason have LB HL On driving in fog etc.
