KevinA Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 My passenger side front turn signal bulb after about a week stops working. If I take it out and push it back into the socket, it works for another week before I have to repeat the processes. If I leave it too long, it will eventually fall out of the socket and I need to remove the headlight to get the bulb out. I have tired several bulbs, they all fall out. I have also tried wrapping the plastic base of the bulb with electrical tape to give it more friction. This helped but it didn't fix the problem. Can anyone make any other recommendations short of replacing the socket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapnJack Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I just replaced my tail lights last night and noticed something. I saw the same issue, but I pushed the bulb a bit harder and it snapped in and seated firmly. If your sockets are not cracked and you have the correct bulbs, you can try that. Otherwise you could try to take a small screw driver and bend the metal pins out on the bulb to help it seat better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
