Can someone please tell me which lights are supposed to blink up front? I can't remember for the life of me.:rolleyes:

On the driver's side the side light on the fender blinks while the running light under the headlight doesn't.

On the passenger's side it's the reverse with the running light blinking and the side light not.

The funny part is I can't remember if it ever didn't do this...:doah:

On the front, the park light under the head light should blink with the fender light with the headlights off, and alternately with the headlights on. In the rear, the brake light should be the only one blinking. I think your problem is that you're low on blinker fluid:wink1:
 
Damnit again!?

I just filled them last fall! I thought that stain under the truck was diesel...
 
I made all of mine blink.Front under the headlight and the skinny long one on the side.
And i "think" your fronts under the headlight should blink w/ the turn signal.But not the sides .
Is that what your asking??
 
Front signals under the headlight flash, and the front fender light flashes alternately to it.

Hrm...gonna cross my fingers and hope for burned out bulbs.

You have winter fluid in them, it is too thin, You need to switch to the thicker summer blinker fluid by the end of March. I recommend full synthetic.
 
Is it possible there are wrong bulbs in the parking light fixture(s)?

I have a feeling those are like the taillights...multiple bulbs will fit in there, only one is the right one. People seem to make that mistake quite often.
 
Yep, check your bulbs. The main blinker under the headlight steals the ground away from the fender marker to make it blink. So one bulb could mess it up.

Then again, Chevys are know to leak blinker fluid all the time, I think it was just a bad o-ring.
