Replacing the front turn signal blinker in a GX470

Do you have a fast blinking turn signal? Then you have a burned out turn signal. I’ll show you how to replace the front turn signal light bulbs.

Thank you so much! I need to do this

[@Kiss__Kiss]

I had to do this a few years ago. Wish I would have had this video.. It would have made things a lot easier lol

Sorry I'm late. :(

Thanks

Easy to do but often forgo how to do it.

Is it possible to replace the front left from underneath instead of taking off the plastic cover on top?

[@bigal1419]

For me it was easier to replace from underneath. No need to remove plastic trim cowl and more space.

awesome video. do you also share some videos about small engine repairing? Maybe we would collaborate?

I really wish you'd have illustrated removing AT LEAST one of the bulbs as that's the hardest part!
I can't remove the passenger bulb to save my life, which direction does it turn? Can't tell by looking at it as you can't see it!

[@GX470PracticalMaintenance]

Well, to be fair I did describe it and show the motion; how to push it in and turn it a quarter turn counter clockwise. It is the opposite to install, push in and turn clockwise. The actual socket is the same, except you just turn it an 1/8 turn counterclockwise and then pull it back and out. It is a tight fit in there, not always the easiest to turn. I'm sorry you are frustrated, try and get both hands down there on it. You can do it!

Just did mine. My cowling had aftermarket panel plugs which for the life of me I can't remove with a screwdriver.
I just replaced the bad bulb on the passenger side, and I'm gonna have to get a panel plug removal tool and replace them later on.
The bad bulb was popped and when I tried moving it the glass separated from the metal.
I prayed and got my vise grips and twisted and pulled it out, put the new bulb in and it works for me :)

only mistake was touching the new halogen bulb with your bare hands, but otherwise great instructional vid.

[@GX470PracticalMaintenance]

These are not halogen bulbs, they are normal incandescent bulbs, touching them doesn't matter. You are correct that you shouldn't touch halogen bulbs like headlights (which I call out in the headlight video).

Anyone know if you can buy the blinker bulb socket? My wire came loose and burned up the piece. Just bought a 04 in great shape except for this so far.

I have the same issue, did you ever wind up fixing this?
