About once a week I get a message on the display that says the left rear turn signal is out. Happens even when I'm not trying to use the turn signal but if I check it, the turn signal does flash quickly. That only lasts for a few seconds and then it starts working normal. I checked the connections at the taillight housing. Hard to trouble shoot when it only lasts for a few seconds. Any one else have this issue? Did you replace the led light and housing or could it be something else?

May have an individual LED goin out.

Could try swapping sides just to try it out and replicate.....kinda crappy situation though since it doesn't do it all the time.

Hi Hydrasport,

Sorry to hear about this! If you decide to visit your local dealership I'd be happy to follow up with them for you if needed. Just PM our page with your VIN and let me know.

Mine does the exact same thing. Rear left turn signal. Totally intermittent, can't reproduce on demand. Being out of my bumper to bumper warranty means I'd be taking it to the dealer for nothing. We all know they'd say "could not reproduce" and charge me for the visit.

Sometimes I can go months without it happening. Other times it'll happen several times in a week.

I'm just going to wait for it to completely go out before fixing it, or trading in the truck.

Factory taillights? LED or base?
