Blinker went Crazy

Blinker went Crazy
So the blinker LIGHTS work (I'm pretty sure, it is SUPER bright out), but while I'm driving I hear a dinging sound. I think it is the same tone as the blinker but maybe the door with the keys in.
What is the best way to attack this problem? I was thinking of finding whatever box makes the blinking sound and replacing it all together. I know the door is shut cause if it wasn't the interior lights would be on.
Thanks!

If it's the door dinging chime, check your door strikers & the rubber covers for your door switches. My drivers side was so worn that when I took a hard right hand turn the door would jiggle open just enough to trip the switch & make it ring half a dozen times a second.

Hello Daemione:
I think you are right. I got where I was driving straight and it wasn't dinging and pushed on the door with my arm and it started doing it's thing. I'll have to find a way to extend that numb or put a bumper on the door. I like where I put the weatherstripping so I'm not going to change that.

Or do a cheap fix, and wrap electrical tape around the striker area. I would replace them, but I can't seem to find them new anymore. At least, not the last time I looked, which was a little while ago.

I did basically what 71OLDS did. I used that weatherstripping I was talking about, and cut a square piece of it and stuck it on the door. The stripping is roughly 3/4 of an inch thick so it fit snuggly where I wanted it and haven't heard the dinging stuff going on since.
Good call Daemione!
