Electrical problem
2005 Chevy Equinox 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

The left blinker signal on my wife's dashboard stays on steady even when it is not chosen or she puts the blinker on to turn right. The turn signal bulbs on the outside of the car seem to be brighter than the daytime running lights. It seems to be that the turn signal is stuck in the on mode but not blinking. I did check fuses and swap bulbs out to no avail.

Hi sean1969,

Thank you for the donation.

The problem is most likely to be caused by a bad ground circuit or crossed wires. For the bulb that is brighter, check the ground connectiosn the area and clean retighten to test.
