del sol turn signal not working
i bought a del sol a few months ago and the turn signal would go in and out...water builds up in the turn signal lamp and the guy said that when it warmed up and it got out it worked well it has gone in and out and is more often out now then ever on...i need to get it inspected and i have to fix this first...it just ticks a bunch when i try to use it...the bulb and fixture are good cuz i tried both on the other side...anybody have a clue what could be wrong

Grammar. It doesn't always go together with cracker.
Clean the contacts in the socket with Scotchbrite pad or a wire brush. Honda's of these years used a galvanized metal for the socket and when it sees constant moisture become corroded.
Then fix the leak. New gaskets if they are torn or clean the surfaces if there is dirt there.
When you type and you do this...you could have just started a new sentence and your post would have been easier to read.
When you say "fixture" what do you mean?

sorry i will not use dots anymore. WHen i say fixture i mean the device that the harness plugs into that is gray and the lightbulb also goes in the other end. I switched them out with each other and all worked just not for my driver side.

Re: del sol turn signal not working
check the contact points for rust and or water condensation. Clean them up and change the bulbs you should be good check front and rear bulbs if the first option doesnt work GL
