Hi

I have a fast front left blinker, however, there also appears to be no light in the left rear either (not even blinking).

I've read that one can cause the other to stop - my question is, are both bad and which bulbs do I order? (eBay?)

Sorry for the question, but rather not take both front and back off to find I only need to replace one of the bulbs - thanks

Hyper-blink is usually caused by bulbs going out. If you already know your rear bulb isn't turning on, you've found your culprit.

yess sir which ever light isnt blinking is the one u need and aslong as u fix that problem u'll be good.

I dont think that you need to go to ebay to get the bulbs just stop by autozone or something like that theres nothing special about the bulbs

Ok, so hyper blink in front = bulb potentially fine? and replace rear only for now?

Whatever bulb is dead is the one you replace, not the fast blinking one. The front one is blinking fast because the circuit is interrupted due to the dead bulb.

It's the left rear (encased in yellow) turn signal light bulb, Autozone has the 7440ST or 7440LL (any preference?)

I'll need to take it out myself and replace - quick instructions? few screws?

RLGS300

no preferance but there will be some nuts will need to be unscrewed i cant remember if they are 8mm or 10mm im pretty sure they are 10

I got the less expensive ones, I don't need turn signal to be uber bright

I see a screw in front, and also 2 in back, I suppose removing those 3 should do it, hopefully

I think there's a total of 5 nuts, three inside and two outside.. all are size 10mm.. since you are replacing one of the bulb, suggest to replace the rest, brake / stop light bulbs.

Assuming brake and stop light mean the same, I only bought a pair of 7440's.

I think the stop light is 7443

What great advice guys - I didn't erroeneously change thge fast blinking front bulb, and quickly changed both 7440 rear bulbs by removing ony 2 exterior screws and 2 interior 10 mm bolts.

Love the feeling of a successful DIY!

Actually, I changed the turn signal and whatever else was a 7440 (reverse?) - hope I didn't change out a good 7443 like the brake light (are the fittings the same?)
