V40 turn signals blinking rapidly after trailer

Hoggy32 · Aug 4th, 2020, 17:20

So I recently purchased a V40 2.0T Automatic 163hp. (I trashed my old v40 1.8gdi)

However, the new car worked perfectly fine until I put a trailer, now without the trailer the right turn signal blinks rapidly. Left works fine, and if I turn on the hazard light both turn signals works fine. It's only when I turn on the right turn signal it blinks rapidly. When I put back the trailer, the right turn signal works good again.

What can the issue be? I doubt it's the relay..., checked and didn't see any fuses blown

Maybe a short in the socket or trailer plug. Try spraying a load of WD40 in both to get rid of the damp. If not that then maybe check the wiring in the socket.
