2001 QX4 Headlights go out when turn signal turned on.

Anyone have an idea on how or why this happens? When I turn the turn Signal on the lights go out sometimes. Infiniti dealer could diagnose it but it still happens. Help. Wife and Kids need lights at night on the road! Thanks a bunch.

Did they check the fuse?

Sometimes the wire connecting either the headlight or turn signal detiorates from the inside. high heat is usually a huge factor. Its hard to diagnose. I had it happen to my J driving the midwest on very hot summer, my turn signals took on a life of there own. I replaced the wire myself. Everything works great.

I had or have the very same problem with my QX4. Had them change the wiring and the ballus still I occasionally get the problem. My solution was to stop using the Automatic lights because it only happened when I had it selected. I now manually turn them off and on and don't have the problem anymore.
