ok so my left signal usually works fine, and my right turn signal -i had to hold the signal lever up and not let go and it worked fine. Defroster usually works fine all though a few days a go it decided it would only stay on for about a minute at a time then it would turn itself off.

so i thrashed my truck in the snow and mud this weekend (HARD too lol) besides it running rougher and shifting a lil crappier and performance being a lil more crapy, heres whats bugging me..

i turn the left signal on, an the left signal stays on rather than blinking.. i hold the signal lever up which normally blinks the right signal and not a thing happens. the light does NOT come on inside the car [the litle arrow] and neither does the outside one. I hit the harzards and they both turn on inside and outside the truck but they do not blink..

ok so heres where shit gets weird. When i hit the rear defroster, nothing happens. But if i turn on the left bliker or hazrd and i HOLD the rear defroster button down, the defroster will click on and off just like the blinker should!?! but it wont stay like that if i let my finger off the rear defroster button. lol..

i know electronics very well so im bound to figure it out, i just never seem to have the time to work on my truck. if anyone can tip me off to a head start, GREAT!!

oh yyah i had to replace my starter solenoid because my other one was intermitent and caused sparks where the power wire met the battery and the wires to get very hot.

For your blinkers, put in a new blinker fuse thing, its a silver round thing in the fuse panel. As for the defroster... I'm stumped...
