| I have been having several electrical problems with my canyon,i have owned it for only 3 months but has been in the shop twice and i need to take it in for a third time because of more electrical problems. 1) auxiliary outlets had to be replaced 2) battery had to be replaced. 3) now my left blinker stays on inside the truck and my left signal stays lit,that has stopped but now when i turn the left signal on, my illuminating lamps for the emergency button,air system controller and air bag lights will blink. *nm | |||
