switchback turnsignal bad after 500 miles...

[erikm12]

Coming home from town today and my instruments went dead. Got home and sure enough blown fuse. Come to find out its the right turn bulb that is bad. With it out, the fuse is fine. Put the bulb in it blows. I switched the bad bulb to the other side and it didn't blow but started smoking when I killed the power. Took good bulb to the bad side and it worked fine. Returned the good bulb to proper home and ordered a new bulb. $30. I think I might call tomorrow and ask them about it.
Anyone have anything like this happen? Oh yeah , only had it in for 500 ish miles......

Got it from autoalumination, 30 led tower 1157 bulb.

Well over 500mi on mine with no issues. Sorry to hear about you issue. Any resister or something of the sort to slow down the blinker rate? I have nothing on mine so it blinks fast.

No problems here, maybe you just got a lemon

Sounds like a lemon like Tim said, write to them and see if you're still within the warranty period. If not, maybe they'll cut you a deal on a new one rather than full cost.
