Hi friends,

My brake light warning signal on my dashboard has been going on and off for the past couple weeks and finally the back right brake light went out. My left turning signal also started to blink twice as fast. I replaced it (though it took me awhile to get it out of the socket) and I have new brake lights in both sides of my car. The brake light signal is now off as well. However, my left turning signal is still blinking fast!

Does this mean I have another bulb out? The brake lights should be fine and I didn't see any other lights out. What is a good way to check which bulb is out?

Thank you!

I have a 2000 Volvo s40

 

It means a turn signal bulb is out.

 

It's either the front left turn signal or rear left turn signal bulb. The front is a 3457A (A for Amber). Not sure about the rear turn signal. I just replaced this same front bulb on my 2001.

 

The rears are super easy to change so if you wanted to verify, the rear fog light should be the same bulb as the rear turn signal, just not amber. Swap it out and see if it removes the hyper flashing. The rear fog is on the bottom row, inside column on the left side cluster set. The turn indicator is the outside column, middle row. (US isn't wired for a fog on the right side cluster set and should be blocked off by a plastic piece on the assembly)

 

Thank you all so much for the responses! It turns out that both the brake light and front turn signal bulb went out around the same time so I was confused!
