I have a problem with the turn signals. Drivers side rear and passenger side front do not blink. The bulbs are lite just dont blink. Anyone have an answer for this problem. It is a 2007 monte caelo LT.

Typically this means that the bulb is bad.
They may light up but the signal part of the bulb could be bad.
Go to the Auto parts Store and purchase a pair and install both.
If you use a Walmart bulb it can go bad at anytime. avoid them. I replaced them about 3 times before I switched to the ones sold at an Auto parts store. (NAPA) has good ones and so will the GM dealer.
It's a good idea to wear gloves when you do this as the oils in your fingers will make the bulb go bad.
Hope that helps I have chased these issues for alot of years and this has solved the problem.

Thank you for the info. I was using Wal-Mart bulbs, I will get new bulbs at the parts store today.
