Flashers on 82

Post by blakevan »

So the flashers won't stop flashing and the turn signals won't work now. If I hold the flasher button it they stop but still can't use the blinkers. Any help on where to start trouble shooting would be greatly appreciated. This all worked up until I made a left turn and with the left blinker going.

There is a thread on the forum here about repairing the hazard switch. A lot of stuff goes through it and it seems like this is probably the culprit.

Hazard lights are powered from fuse 9 (hot all the time) and signal lights are powered from fuse 1 (hot in start and run). The hazard switch switches the power to the flasher from fuse 1 for signals to fuse 9 for hazards.
Hope this helps
