Hey guys, thanks for the responses... i'll try cleaning the grounds and the sockets... i did replace a bukb last summer and the socket was corroded... you caused me to think of that! Thanks!

I stored my 1984 928S in a heated garage for winter. Started her up this weekend and she runs great. However, the turn signal indicator is dimly lit all the time. The flashers work fine and all bulbs are ok. From the moment I turn the key, even before starting engine, the signal lites up. I replaced the relay. Same problem. Also, not sure if related, my central warning indicator is on and cannot be reset. I checked the category A issues (brake fluid, oil, oil pressure, etc.) and everything seems fine. When I activate the flasher, right or left, the signal indicator flashes as normal but the warning indicator also dims with the flashing of the trun signals... like they are pulling from same current? Any ideas out there? Thanks!! Tim

First off, my heart goes out to you... these 928's are fun until they display gremlins! If it were me in your shoes, try to keeo the initial checks simple. Remember, a car need sthree things to run... gas, spark and air. Seems you have checked the gas issue but you say the plugs are dry? I would pull a plug, dry it well, and reinstall. Try starting. Then pull the same plug and see if wet. If so, you have fuel.... next, check the spark. Pull a plug and in a dark environment, install the plug boot and hold the boot and plug with an insulating gripper up to the engine block (I usually use a piece of wood cracked in half)... with someone cracking the engine, do you get spark? If yes, then it is a different issue. I would then expand into the cold start injector (pull and clean/or replace)... then I might try the timing, fuel pressure, etc. Another idea is try some starter fluid. I'm not a fan so use it sparingly. See if it starts with a shot or two... if so, you have spark and its a fuel issue. Hope this helps... Tim
