yeah... mine too... now I'm really really confused. If they just blink, they shouldn't need 3 wires, ya know?

Garry you have a Helms don't you? Mind finding out where those wires go, and why they might both need to be there?

Thanks man.

Hey man, thanks a lot for scanning that... btw, you have one bada$$ scanner! The quality is amazing! Anyways, best I can figure is that there's one wire coming from the turn signal relay, goes to the side turn signal, then 'bounces' off that one to the front signal instead of having 2 wires..??? Maybe? That's my best guess.. but now that I think of it, the front signal takes more wattage from it being a bigger bulb, so that wouldn't work right huh? Damn.

Just one more question Garry, then I'll leave you alone

Do your front/side/rears blink together, or do the front/rear blink, and the side alternately? Thanks for the help.

No problem man, glad to help

All three turn signals all blink together at the same time.

i had three wires on my sidemarkers and only used 2. no problems so far. i ended up just cutting that third wire off

my goal is to wire my sidemarkers to stay constantly on and blink when i turnsignals are used. i tried wiring my wires today but got only one done. my sidemarkers have 3 wires. 1ground and 2 green. i concluded that the 2 green wires will be tied to the front turn signals in order for then to operate that way i want them to. is this correct? find out the hard way. i wire one to the outer most turnsignal and the other to the corner light. This came out to be a constant light with no blinking
