coolnesss Posted July 25, 2010 Report Share Posted July 25, 2010 I started getting a fast right turn blinker, which usually means a bulb is burned out. I opened the housing this afternoon - and - lo and behold, the top bulb was missing. Gone. Not in the housing. No on the ground. Nowhere. The socket was clean and empty. I put in a new bulb and it all works fine. Does this make any sense at all? The car hadn't been out of my possession when the blinker started going fast.

BodybyFisher Posted July 26, 2010 Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 That is weird, a bandid that steals a bulb and then reassembles the light assembly. It has to be an inside job, Oh that's right, this is one of those new green bulbs, they don't blow out, they dissolve into water vapor at 2000 hours, Maybe it fell out, into the lens?, take a look behind the red lens Pre-1995 - DTC codes OBD1 >> 1996 and newer - DTC codes OBD2 >> https://www.obd-codes.com/trouble_codes/gm/obd_codes.htm How to check for codes Caddyinfo How To Technical Archive >> http://www.caddyinfo.com/wordpress/cadillac-how-to-faq/ Cadillac History & Specifications Year by Year http://www.motorera.com/cadillac/index.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolnesss Posted July 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2010 I looked in the housing - it's simply not there. Ah well, another mystery to ponder over martinis and caviar . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you check out the over light for missing bulb? Do it before having martinis! The saddest thing in life is wasted talent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
