    But first, the left rear turn signal has been out for over a year. The left front signal works but flashes quickly. I did all of the obvious, replaced the left rear lense and sent it back. Changed the bulb, and swapped the left socket & bulb over to the right side and it works fine. The working right socket & bulb doesnt work on the left. Has anyone had this problem with their 4th Gen and found the resolution?

    There’a an open connection somewhere in the left rear turn signal circuit. You’re gonna need to check continuity all along the path according to a wiring diagram. Usually the socket end is most vulnerable to damage and corrosion.

    Monochrome everything. LED reverse lights.
    If the left front works but flashes quickly try changing the fuse for that circuit. I’ve found this can be a typical problem. Even if it looks ok.
