    I think I have a few issues with my turnsignals/brake lights in the back of the car. On the left side, only the outer bulb flashes when you turn on the turnsignal. On the right side, the middle bulb is the only one that flashes when the turnsignal is on. Which one is correct or are both the outer and middle bulb suppose to flash when the turnsignal is on? All bulbs are on, so that is not a issue, it is just which ones should be flashing, etc... I am thinking about rewiring the back end of the car to hopefully fix this problem, but please let me know what is correct. Also, where can I get turnsignal sockets cheaper than $16 a piece at partsplace??

    Thanks,
    Brian

    Brian,
    Both the inner and outer bulbs should flash and illuminate with the brakes. They are 1157 bulbs with 2 filaments. If the bulbs are all good, the sockets are dirty or defective. You should be able to find pigtail sockets at just about any auto parts store.
