Leaf turn signal faulty

My 2018 Nissan Leaf (electric) has a weird turn signal issue on the driver's side. I'm getting an error message in the speedometer, and the light seems faulty. The car only has 33009 km on it! Anyone else experienced this? I'm not sure what to check first, other than the bulb itself, which looks fine.

Summary of the thread

A 2018 Nissan Leaf is experiencing a faulty turn signal on the driver's side, accompanied by an error message on the speedometer. The bulb appears fine, suggesting the issue may lie elsewhere. Possible causes include a flasher relay issue or an electrical fault, such as a loose or corroded plug connection to the signal lamp. It is suggested to check the plug connection behind the light assembly, but if unsure, consulting a mechanic is advised.

That's a strange one. If the bulb looks okay, it could be a flasher relay issue, but I'd lean more towards an electrical fault. Have you checked the plug connection to the signal lamp? Sometimes those can get loose or corroded.

Thanks for the quick reply! Where exactly is the plug connection located? Is it something I can easily access myself, or will I need to take apart half the car?

It should be accessible behind the light assembly itself. You might need to remove a few screws or clips to get to it, but nothing too major. However, if you're not comfortable poking around with the electrics, it might be best to take it to a workshop. I had a similar issue on another car and it turned out to be a corroded connector. Cost me around 95€ to get fixed.

Okay, thanks for the advice! I'll check the connection, but if I can't figure it out, I'll take it to a mechanic. Sounds like it's not worth risking messing something else up. Thanks again!
