Blinker stuck on left position

JoshMN · 03-04-2019, 03:22 PM

I drove to school this morning and the blinkers were working as usual, got out of class and the left blinker is now stuck on and cannot change from left to right or turn off. I tried pulling some of the blinker fuses, 25 and 62 but didn't turn them off. Any suggestions?

Edit: Currently I'm thawing the car out in a shop I work at since it's 10 degrees in MN

Thank you

Stop turning right. It's a sign from the heavens!

Ok, false alarm, might of over reacted a bit, I disconnected the battery and touched the terminals together and left it in the heated shop for 2 hours to thaw it out and it works again

That did seem like a weird thing to happen. I just assumed that the contact in the blinker stalk was getting loose.

The same thing happened to me yesterday. It was quite strange.

I was getting left blinker and rear fog on the dashboard.

If the contacts in the ride height sensors get moisture/corrosion in them, all sorts of weird light issues can happen.

How/where can I check for this? I've also been having an issue with my comfort access. It will allow me to unlock via the driver door handle. However it will not perform the lock function. The passenger door works fine. I also have trouble from time to time getting the trunk to unlock from the decklid.

I also received the notice for the footwell module (FRM). Does this device have any control over the issues I may be experiencing?

Any advice will help. Thanks!
