please help
last night when i was parked waiting for my lady to come out i had my emergency lights, when i took off my turning signals went out but my emergency lights still work. checked my fuses and bulbs one by one and thier all good changed my flasher relay and still.. could it be my turning signal switch or could there be another solution??? been reading and been hearing a lot about the wd40 spray down.
Re: please help
(The hazard switch does more than just connect the voltage coming out of the flasher relay to the appropriate bulbs. It also chooses which wiring path provides the voltage going INTO the flasher relay. If your hazards are off, the hazard switch supplies the flasher relay with voltage coming through the ignition switch and turn signal fuse. If your hazards are on, the hazard switch supplies the flasher relay with voltage coming through the hazard fuse.)
It sounds to me like the hazard switch is failing to reconnect the turn signal voltage path when you turn off your hazards. To test this, unplug your flasher relay, turn the ignition to ON and the hazards to OFF, and make sure you're getting voltage between the left (+) and right (ground) contacts of the flasher relay socket. In your case, no voltage means the ONLY possibilities are 1) a bad turn signal fuse, 2) a problem with yellow wire between the fuse and the hazard switch, or (most likely based on what you've said) 3) the hazard switch itself.
Let us know what you find...
