2005 CHEVROLET CORVETTE turn signal bulb

If you signal a turn or a lane change and the arrows
ash faster than normal, a signal bulb may be
burned out.
If a bulb is burned out, replace it to help avoid an
accident. If the arrows do not go on at all when you
signal a turn, check the fuses and check for burned-out
bulbs. SeeFuses and Circuit Breakers on page 5-85.
Turn Signal on Chime
A chime will remind you if you leave the turn signal on
for more than three-quarters of a mile (1.2 km) of
driving.
If you need to leave the turn signal on for more than
three-quarters of a mile (1.2 km), turn off the signal and
then turn it back on.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
To change the headlamps from low beam to high or
high to low, push the turn signal lever all the way
forward.
While the high beams are
on, this light on the
instrument panel cluster
also will be on. To change
the headlamps from
high to low, pull the lever
rearward.
Flash-to-Pass
To use the ash-to-pass feature, momentarily pull the
turn signal lever toward you. The high-beam indicator
will ash to indicate to the other driver that you intend to
pass. If the low-beam headlamps are off and you
have the optional fog lamps on, the fog lamps will ash.
