I recently had a problem with my left blinker. When I would activate it, it would blink more than twice as fast as normal, and the front blinker would not blink. The side and rear blinker were working, but the front was not.

I removed the headlight and blinker assembly from the engine bay, unclipped the blinker wire harness, removed the blinker light and then re-inserted it, making sure it was seated extremely snugly. I then put the whole assembly back together, and all was well!

I just wanted to let you know, in case you have a similar problem with either of your blinkers. I figured this problem out with the help of my fantastic mechanic, and now if it happens to you, you can remedy it quickly!

If there are any Volvo Forum members that live in San Antonio, TX, I would HIGHLY suggest taking your car to European Autowerks, when you don't feel like doing a DIY job. Half the time I take my car in, my mechanic tells me what needs fixing and how I can fix it myself, if I so please. I've NEVER had such a fantastic customer service experience.

I hope this helps someone with a rapid-fire blinker in the future!
