Default Blinker Lights???!!!!

When I turn on my left turn signal it blinks fast. The rear bulbs are both working, but the left front doesn't blink. Also, the left front daytime running light isn't on. I guess they are the same bulb. Well, the weird thing is that I replaced the left front bulb and it still doesn't work. I also noticed that the bulb I removed doesn't look blown. What could be causing this. Also, my main drive belt squeaks when I start the engine. It's not the A/C belt, I kinda don't think it's the belt, cause I replaced it and it still has a squeaking sound. It sounds more like a pulley or something. Maybe the tensioner is worn out. Any help or ideas are greatly appreciated.

Actually that was pretty funny. Never assume a bulb is good just because you just bought it or just pulled it out of the package. If you don't have a tester handy, take the working bulb out of the other side and try it, and also try those bulbs in the side you know works. Hope it is something as simple as just another bad bulb for you.

Check your DRL relays #38 & 40 in front of the toe board on the pass. side. Swap them left to right and see if the problem moves to the other side. If it does then your relay is bad.

I tried to IM you with a schematic but IM'ing is still a little screwey. I'll e-mail the DRL.tif to your e-mail. Have fun. GULFSTREAMS RULE THE SKY. :D
