Turn signal problem

I installed my fog light kit a week and ago and I have problems with my turn signal going off automatically when I turn left. It works when I turn right though. Any suggestions or solutions? thanks in advance.

Can you explain it more in detail, I seem to fail to understand you.
Do you mean it simply does not work when you push the turnsignal stick to the left? It just does not turn on or do anything?

I mean when I push it down to turn left, the light will work, but it doesn't pop back to the neutral position by itself. When the turn is completed the left turn signal will still be on . Then I have to manually push the turn signal controller up myself.

I take it that with this Fog Light Kit, you got the new light switch assembly? If this is the case and the install went o.k. (you didn't break anything, right?) then it sounds like you have a faulty assembly. I installed my kit about a year ago and have had no problems. The new assembly is pretty much straight forward and you should not have had to do anything special. With that in mind, I would take it to the place you got it from (or call them if you ordered it online) and get a new assembly.

Yeah the install went o.k. , Got the fogs working and everything. Yeah, I probably have to get a new assembly. That's gonna be a pain in the but to install it again. I may just keep the faulty one in and hope that it somehow breaks in .

guys, the question about the foglight kit on your GXE's. How much did you pay for yours, and whats included. What kind of switch come w/it, and if your foglights are still on with high beams.

I had these blueish Pilots installed on my car by a local shop, and I had it with them and their install. My bulbs go out for the 2nd time, it is an *** to replace them, and they are not aimed correctly, I get middle fingers from other drivers.

Nezashto. Other places have it (i.e your friendly nissan dealer or Dave B.) I would call Dave and tell him you're from the .org and see what he can do for you as far as getting a better price.)

F*** ME! I paid 130 to those brothas to mess up my car the way they did. Then it cost me 80 someplace else to replace one bulb, and now the other one is out. Now I see that the factory foglight kit is easy to attach and aim, and you have a clean look vs. 3mm gaps all around in mine. I have no clue what they wired my fogs to, but they stay on with parking lights and w/high beams.

And now, my bulb went out again. Guys what should I do? The money is very tight, if I could buy these fog lights from someone for 50....like junkyard or smthg..
