We have the same TT and the same year. I have not yet burned out one of the turn signals.

A thought, do you have the right bulb?

See this post of mine. http://www.sunlineclub.com/forums/ph...ighlight=#5795 It lists all the bulbs I have in mine.

Is your turn signal bulb A CEC 1157, Rear Stop Light –Directional – Dual element?

Generally high voltage and excess heat are the bulb killers. Check your voltage in case something is going on there. I doubt it but one never knows.

As for heat, is you’re the Bargman std tail light? Looks like this?


Are there any signs of melted plastic inside the lens?

If the bulb is the right wattage, it should not be burning out. Are you using a brand name bulb?

Hope this helps

John
