Re: double-speed left blinker

     It's a simple problem, the timer that control blinking is in the relay 
     and it is probably bad. Just have it replaced under warranty.

I HAVE 97 BLACK GLX... NO BLINKER PROBLEMS.... JUST MY DAMN IGNITION LEY 
WON'Y WORK RIGH A LOT OF TIMES!!! IT'S NOT THE KEY CAUSE THE OTHER KEYS DO 
THE SAME. I'VE SAT IN MY CAR FOR UP TO 20 MINUTES TRYING TO GET THE F'ING
THING STARTED. THE DEALER SAID IT'S FINE AND THAT THEY LUBRICATED IT....  ??????
     
ANWAY, I'M A HAM RADIO OPERATOR AND WHEN I WOULD TRANSMIT ON 440MHz, I WOULD 
ALSO CAUSE MY BLINKER TO FLIP AT DOUBLE SPEED IN MY HONDA. THERE WAS NOTHING 
I COULD DO TO PREVENT IT... EXCEPT NOT TALK WHEN THE BLINKER WAS ON OR ELSE 
JUST IGNORE IT. IT WORKED FINE OTHERWISE!!!
     
DO YOU HAVE A RADAR JAMMER or DETECTOR... POSSIBLY ANOTHER RF EMITTING 
DEVICE? CHECK THAT!.
