I gave the DIY on X5World a quick scan, thinking I might have to
change bulb & socket, as Rob_ had suggested to me; question is:
in cleaning the socket contacts, does that require "moving/sliding"
the headlamp assy. too, or just reaching in and pulling the turn
signal socket out?

Ya'll must have some eye surgeon hands as I can hardly get my
freakin ham hand down in that area.

JV: nah, no warning light on dash; dunno if the '01s have them.

Jes' glad it's working again, for awhile. I'm thinking it was the near
constant use on our 90 mph+ "cruise" up 1-85/I-95 chasing Mr.Valencia,
that made it glitch, eg, the turn signals were a clicking as we weaved
through the traffic for hours on end.

NEway, thanks for the ideas; I passed the freakin annual NC State
Car Insp. yesterday, so I'm glad. 1 Car down, 2 cars and 3 fookin Sleds
to go...
I need a "Stable Butler".
