Default Crx dash/tail lights

Sup guys, 90 crx si, dash and tail lights take anywhere from 10 secs to 3 mins to come on after turning lights on. The obly other lighting issue is the left turn signs will sometimes flash fast like bulb is out but front and back are working (even during the fast flash). I'm assuming the flasher needs replacing but could thesr problems be related? Any experiences or suggestions welcome. Thanks.

Try cleaning the electrical contacts in the light switch.

An issue I had once was my signal light relay (or whatever the proper term is) was faulty and did fast-flash all the time. I replaced it, fixed that problem.

Probably about a year or so later (completely unrelated to the previous problem), my headlights started coming on delayed like yours. Eventually, they quit coming on at all. It might be possible to clean the headlight switch/signal arm stalk, but I just replaced it with one from a wrecker. The 88-89 have a textured headlight switch, the 90-91 is smooth. I like having tactile feedback so I got the 88-89 version. It fixed my headlight issue.
