05 G35 Sdn - High beams flicker when turn signal switched on

[Q451990]

Kind of a weird issue... the high beam headlights will flicker for a split second when I turn the turn signal on. I think it's only when I turn on the left turn signal.

Has anyone experienced this before? I have the extended warranty - so I'm assuming it's something internally in the switch assembly - and they'll just swap it out - but I'm curious if it's common.

Thanks!

Bad ground perhaps?

If it's one side it's usually a bulb...but in your case it only happens when you use the turn signal so I kinda don't think it's the bulb. Following on what Howie posted I would check grounds and work your way back. It could be a relay issue along the way too.

I don't think I was clear... both the left and right lights flicker - but it seems to only happen when I turn on the left signal.

Ah...use a meter and monitor the system to see if the current drops below 12v when the blinkers are flashing. Make sure the volts are around 13.6 when running. Clean your grounds.
