Best Answer

It depends on why it failed. It should tell you right on your suspension check sheet.

If your suspension is failing it is a numerous amount of components that are involved. The compressor could be shot, the air bags could be leaking, your solenoids could need replacing, the air lines could have leaks or holes in them, the dryer could need replacing, your relay could have issues. There are so many things that could go wrong with this and the cost to replace these items can be costly.

edit: these are all for electronic/hydraulic controlled suspension systems, these are only on high end cars. On most cars, a failed suspension check would most commonly be caused by failing shock absorbers or ball joints. Though other parts also will fail, it is much less common they do.

Fixing the blinkers on any car depends on what is wrong with them. If the flasher has failed replace the flasher. If a bulb or bulbs have failed then replace those bulbs. If the turn signal switch has failed then replace that. It could also be wiring or connection problems. Check connections for dirt, rust or corrosion, fix as needed. Check the light bulb sockets, clean or replace as necessary. Repair broken or damaged wires.

Point being look at the suspension more than the engine.
