Hi Robert,

One of the signal lights on my 2017 Nissan Rogue has started blinking much faster than it used to. Can you tell me if this is a serious issue and whatâ€™s causing it?

Thanks,
Nick

Hi, Nick!

Let me start by putting your mind at ease: this isnâ€™t a serious issue. In fact, itâ€™s a very common one. While itâ€™s nothing to worry about, your Nissan Rogue will require some attention.

When the bulbs in your blinkers burn out, the voltage lowers. This takes pressure off the circuit and means it can do its job easier or, rather, faster. So this is whatâ€™s actually happening when your light starts flashing at twice its regular speed.

The fact that it operates like this is actually really useful, as it makes you aware that one of your bulbs needs to be changed. While it's not something to be overly concerned about, don't let this issue drag on. One day it will stop working and, for obvious reasons, that's dangerous.

Why not call into Nissan Kirklandâ€™s Service DepartmentÂ in Seattle, Washington, and let our Technicians have a look? Itâ€™s a quick and painless job, so youâ€™ll be out in no time.

Thanks for the question, Nick! Do contact us again if you need anything else.
