Turn signal/hazard problem. I need help.

So I decided to replace my stock taillights with 04-05 tails. Everything works except for the turn signal/hazard. All four do not work. All the connections seem fine. I replaced the fuse and the relay and no luck. What could be the problem? Please help.

It could be that the hazard switch is not connected if you had to take off the bezel for whatever reason, i did that and had the same problem. But if that's not the case i don't have any other ideas haha

If that's the case, the turn signal switch still work, right? But I'm still gonna check the hazard switch just to make sure. Thanks for the reply.

No, If the hazard is disconnected the the turn signals will not operate.

Are the signal bulbs in the new tails LED or standard bulbs ??

Re: Turn signal/hazard problem. I need help.

Are the signal bulbs properly grounded (turn signal/tail/brake bulbs all share same ground) Double check the electrical connections you made during the swap inspect the sockets contacts where the bulbs base fits in. And no crappy scotchblocks being used ??

Turn signal rear should be a single filament bulb, GRN/XXX to one side of bulb filament and other side to ground.

The factory colors for the wires would be Right Signal = GRN/YEL / Left Signal = GRN/RED both front and rear.

Got a meter ??
