2005 Expedition (Side mirror) blinker....

Wow.
Well, my wife turned on her blinker on the right side, and all she was getting was a fast tick/blink.
The back rear blinker was blinking fast.

The front right, and right side mirror blinkers weren't blinking at all.

I put a new bulb in front, and checked the fuses...
not that...

So I figured it was the side mirror blinker.

Followed the manual, used a torx, and got the screw out...

But I can't pull the freaking lens cover off (under the mirror), and I don't want to break it.
Any suggestions?

Thank you,
mike

Welcome RIP! I don't know the specific answer but one of the new model owners will probably jump in and answer right quick.

Thank you...

Yeah, I'm sure that lens "pops" off, but man it felt like I was going to break it.

Push the mirror forward while looking from below until the len clear the catch, push in slightly, then pull down, replace bulb and assembly by reverse steps.

The mirror would not cause the fast blink. It is a low wattage bulb. The front or rear are higher wattage and would cause the fast blink if missing/blown. You said front and mirror. Kinda funny they went out at the same time. Since you tried a new bulb in the front and that didn't work, it may be time for a new multi-funtion switch. Time to start tracing wires back to the switch.
