I never said you were, but a simple search in the correct V35 forum would have sorted you out quickly.

With the little amount of information you provided I am guessing you have a 2.5 or 3L? No OBD2 readers will work, as they aren't OBD2 compliant. (even though they have an OBD2 plug.) You can drop the battery terminal for 6 months and the fault will still be there, you either need to do the pedal dance to manually clear it, or use one of the limited units that will talk to your ecu, namely the Consult3 unit, Snap-on, Osirus or Launch Diagun. They are all fairly expensive but only the Consult3 will communicate with all the ecu's in the car.

I think I am supposed to get scared, more so than his keyboard antics warrant.

Fix it yourself, the hammer is over there mate.

To think... I was going to invite the bouncer here for an ecu reset on the Consult...

Ken, I'll give you a couple of tips.

If asking a v35 question, go to the v35 section. It will get answered quicker, and there is a great search function that would have answered your question if you used it.

Second. Nothing stirs "keyboard warriors" up like someone who try's to act tough over the internet. Nobody cares you're a bouncer. This is a car forum, not an nightclub. Leave the attitude behind.

Welcome, I hope you find the information on v35s helpful.

      In Need if Help with Signal lights: Constant on

      By SLVRBAKSLPZ · Posted

      I've had these LEDs and a LED EP34 flasher relay in the car since 2020. No fuses were popped either. I'll multimeter and clean off the tarnish tomorrow. From how the lights were acting after I diddle the stick make me lean towards a stalk problem.

      Are you sure you can use LEDs in the indicator lamps? On a car that old? It doesn't work on many old cars because the indicator relay can't cope with the wrong impedance out at the lamp positions and the LEDs will happily light up even with minimal current flowing through the indicator relay. And when I say "indicator relay" I mean the flasher, not a relay relay. Beyond that, I would say that you have caused yourself a wiring fault and that you would be well advised to work through the wiring diagram and the actual loom with a multimeter.

      Did some more messing around with this issue. I think the stalk is the problem. i wiggled it around a bit. When i went to put the signal up for a left turn, all the signals blinked lol. I'm gonna try and clean the tarnish off the copper and see if that works. this still doesnt explain why the left side/fronts are constant on ACC/On after i pulled the stalk. may be a ground from the stalk thats causing it. IDKkKkKk. I'll report back

      Hello, Has anyone experienced their signal light being constantly on when parking or headlights are on?   I'm putting my car back together after painting. I didn't pull out the hole chassis harness. I hooked up the chassis harness in the bay along with semi-installing a new ecu harness.   I put power to the car today to play some musicand check on thing while I worked. I noticed when I put on the parking lights that the left rear signal was constantly on. I thought for whatever reason. All the signal light needed to be install. The rear left signal did turn off after all the other signal bulbs where installed, but now the other 4 are lit. The left 2 are brighter than the right. I noticed that if u pull out the front left bulb them the left rear turns back on. Strange. Hazards work fine. Activating the signal from the stalk works. I unplugged the signal stalk power to see if that may have been the issue. Removed the fuse for the signals and they stay on constant but not blink.   I have LED 194/T10 bulbs. They're not switchback. Things worked as normal before I took thing apart and painted. The only new things I wired were two removed leads to my fuel pump relays.   Could it be the stalks? I bumped them plenty while working. Just from today I assessed them good and no flickering from contact on so it's hard to say it's the stalks.   The issue somewhere in the chassis harness?
