ey all....ok tripping me out this is....... all my indicators work.... left side flashes fine and everything...right hand side flash's fast ( like one globe is out ) but they all work..... so then i thought that maybe when i had my new front bar put on the new indicator on the front was not giving enough wattage so the system thinks one is out..... ( its one o those horizontal little things ) so i then switched the left hand side ( working fine ) into the right socket and still the same problem..... but then it gets weirder.... i pull out the rear right hand indicator and replaced it with about 3 spares i had... 2 o them made no differnce.... but one of them made the blink slow up...but still goin fast..so it was like a semi pace blink... i have no idea's... was thinking either checkin my relays.... but if one of the bulbs made it slow up then it has to be something to do with wattage.... so i also swapped out my lft rear bulb and put it in the right... still no difference.... n e help would be appreciated...this is so bloody frustrating

Hi mate, not sure if this is any assistance, but I recently had the same problem with my VE Clubsport.

Went back to holden and they had to replace the rear left light module and it fixed the problem. Wish they changed the RHS at the same time, as 1 month later, it is doing the same thing.

Bloody Holden. Anyway, there possibly might be a module that you can check.

Cheers

cheers for the reply's guys.... ahhh another thing that takes me to the rear indicator is that there was some water in it recently... yeah gotta seal it up but maybe the module got wet and is now f./#@ed ... i dunno jump out with a multimeter tomorrow and check i guess...might go and look at some new globes to knock that out aswell.... besides that... auto lecky.... grrrrrrr..........

My old datsun had the same problem

The flasher unit was stuffed, if skylines have a flasher unit (small metal cylinder ) that sits under the dash then I reckon thats where the problem is

I just kind find the dam flasher can, found the relay though

I also read could be wrong size globes or bad earth as well.

I'll have a sus again for the can today.

Indicators still flashing fast but

Low beams fixed, bulb was out.

Will keep you guys posted on the update

On r33's the flasher is under the steering wheel behind the dash. Dont have to pull any panels off to get to it. Put your indicators and feel around for the thing clicking on and off. I changed mine to a non load dependant flasher when I put LED's in all my indicators. Works like factory

iv had this problem. did my head in.

ended up being that in my custom front bar there are 2 bulbs per indicator, and one of the two was out. Still looked like the indicator was working but one of the bulbs was out causing the fast flashing. Replaced bulb. All sorted :)

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
