1999 Ford Ranger. Front passenger side marker light does not turn on, but works as a blinker. The bulbs are good and are correct (3157). Also, the blinker blinks fast. Is this the relay even though the blinker works?

  • dillonc_93 Nov 03, 2019

    Also the fast blink feature is a built in fault indicator for open circuit. The terminal conductors can get corroded always best to clean and apply die electric grease

  • Brgh Ross Nov 04, 2019

    thanks everyone. it was a torn up wire that i missed that caused the issue, and one of the bulb filaments in back was burnt.

Most likely is a dual element bulb, one cannot work while the other one does, check the bulb

The 3157K turn/marker bulb has two filaments. One is appearently burnt out. Replace the bulb.

Fast blinking on the front turn signal indicates that the REAR passenger turn bulb (which is also a 3157K).

There should two separate bulbs for marker and blinker. It sounds like a bulb is burnt out, bad ground, melted socket or a wiring anomaly. Are you certain it's supposed to have 57 series dual element bulbs for blinker and markers?

If the bulb is definitely good then check the bulb contacts and socket for presence of corrosion that will prevent it from working. Also check for the presence of current at socket.

SOURCE: front side marker / turn signal wiring diagram for 1997 crown vic LX. Both directionals works, but parking light on driver side dosn't. passenger side works fine . 3157 bulb and only 2 wires to socket

I take it is a double filament bulb some times they will open circuit when they get hot, take the bulb out, hold in one hand and give it a flick with a finger, while watch the filament if it vibrates replace it, If OK use a test light to check for voltage, if none follow the wiring back till you find the fault, Yes you could hot wire it.

You have a bad connection at the rear passenger side turn signal. It is either the connection is corroded or a wire is loose on the ground side of the circuit.

My 1992 ford ranger driver side tail light wont work but the reverse light does the bulb is good done checked that any suggestions

They are separate bulbs.
are you saying you check both of those bulbs?
if you did, and the taillight/marker light is a good bulb, then it's either the bulb receptacle, or the wiring going to it.

Which bulb is the rear blinker on a 2001 LeSabre?

Its the large bulb.
The small bulb is the side marker bulb. The larger bulb (3057 or 3157) is the combo tail-stop-turn signal.
There is also a single filament bulb for the backup light.

How do i change the brake light on jeep liberty 2006?

1) You will need to open the rear swing door.

2) On the inside jam there are two torx headed screws (T-15's if I remember correctly).

3) Unscrew the two torx screws.

4) The light is now held by two mounting tabs (small spherical headed plastic sets that go through a rubber grommet).

5) You will need to pry the light casing off (easy pressure with a good size flat head screw driver will do the trick).

6) The light bulbs are twist mount settings inside the light casing.

7) Twist out the mount setting, change the bulbs, and reset the light mountings.

8) To put the light casing push the light casing back on and put in the screws. Everything else will work in reverse when it comes to assembling the whole unit.

Drivers side tail light lighting up at night when head lights are on but break light not working on that side. passenger side not lighting up when head lights are on but break light working on that side....

You probably already know this, however the GMC 2002 Yukon Denali uses the Wagner 3157 (or equivalent) dual element bulb. The running light uses one element whereas the brake & blinker share the other element that burns brighter.

Check to ensure the correct bulbs are being used. Then check all wire harness connections. Since the blinkers function, then it sounds like the connections are good.

It really sounds like there is a bulb issue, so check that first, then let us know the results.

you have two wires touching somewhare, probabley on front passengers side or the wires are mashed into the frame causing a short. i would investagate all the light wiring on the passenger front and tape up any exposed wires. a crushed socket can also cause this.
