Indicator bulb stays on
Hi there my left headlight bulb went out yesterday. Since then the headlights acting weird (left blinker flashes twice as fast) and with the car off the front left indicator bulb stays on.
To prevent destroying the battery while I wait for the bulb to ship outside of disconnecting the battery is there anything I could do?
Thank you

Hey
Looks like your flasher relay could be faulty or you have some ground connection issues. Either way this needs to be sorted as replacing the bulb will not resolve the underlying issue. Also check if there is any water in the housing or in between the bulb and the connection.
