Turn indicators

[MOliveira]

Turn indicators gone wild but do not flash. Took it to dealer and said it's the TIPM. Wants $584 plus instalation. Has anyone had this happen??

You have to let us know the year and model of your truck and any mods before any of us can help.

The TIPM should be able to be "reflashed" (reset by dealer) at a much lower cost then that!! That being said, it can only be reset about 3 times before it DOES need to be replaced at a much higher cost.



Here is more to read on TIPM and what they do and why they sock--

IMPORTANTLY, no matter what route you go, think about getting one of these high quality "TIPM Savers" that a TDR member is making and selling--

I was going to get one until I realized that my 2005 truck uses the standard PDC (power distribution center), not a TIPM.

That scenario does not hold true for all years
