For reference, I drive a 94 civic dx hatch.
Alright, so my turn signal varies with the weather, but only on the left side. When it is warm or hot out, everything is copacetic. Below, oh I don't know, maybe 50 degrees, my left tun signal gets screwy. I can pull the lever and nothing will happen. no click, no lights, nothing. However, if I fiddle with the stick I can eventually get it to blink as long as I keep playing with the stick. Usually when I do get it to blink, the lights flicker quickly like when a bulb is burnt out. any thoughts?

 

There is a switch that the "stick" operates in the column. It obviously is worn out. Metal contracts when cool, expands when hot. The contacts are making enough of a connection when it's warm out, but not when it's cool. Fiddling with it in that condition seems to only make partial contact causing the quick flicker.

 

so basically I need to replace that part?

 

i have that same problem with my 89 crx. its the left side only. i forgot about it because it has been warm out and working well. but i do remember it not working last winter.

 

ha ha I'll let you know if I fix it then
