I've uploaded two videos to my YouTube channel describing this very thing as I ask my question. Pardon the rambling, unedited, raw nature of the videos. I wasn't going for cinematic beauty here... I simply needed a platform with which to illustrate my question.
Basically, I want to know if outer markers are supposed to blink along with the inner ones, or stay dim and solid? I have a feeling those may have more flexibility and usefulness than we see here. Might the wired police strobs have disabled and prevented the outer ambers from blinking?
I really wish I could see a Civilian 2011 Crown Vic LX side by side, so I can see how the non-police version's front turn signals are supposed to work. If anyone can help answer my question, I would be most appreciative.
First video is of the 2011 Crown Vic itself, the 2nd video is of a 2007 Honda Civic-- just to illustrate how I WISH the Crown Vic would work-- by having turn signals on the wrap-around portion, so that traffic to the side of me can see my turn signals as well.
Yes... I know a Honda isn't a Ford... it's just a point of comparison, just to show you how I wish things were, and/or to illustrate how if it is supposed to be doing that on the Ford... it isn't... and how do I fix that problem... if it is indeed a problem? (If it's normal... then I have my answer, and the answer is I do nothing).
