It Doesn’t Blink, Therefore I Think……..

is it a relay or fuse or what?
Because the right side works you know the fuse is good.

With the key in
RUN, turn signal stalk in the left turn position, use a test light to probe the light blue wire out of the turn signal switch.

Is there power there?

If not, replace the switch.

If there is power there, make sure it gets in and out of the connector located near the lower right of the steering column.

Then make sure power gets in and out of the large connector located near the left front of the dash below the relay bracket.

From there it goes to the lamps on the front of the car.


my interior light is not coming on when i open the (left) door.
If the right door turns on the interior lights the problem is the pin switch in the left door, or the wiring going to it has a broken connection.

Just trace it till you find the bad connection.


Happy Racing!


How bout those too scared to drive without headlights in the daytime and the ones that need headlights for a little rain

Re: sidemarker/blinker help

Ok thanks for the help. I had a chance to play with it a bit more today I ran a test light to the parklamp connectors with the bulbs removed. I have power to both sides. I did not test the sidemarkers. Ok here's where it gets funny if I turn on the hazards the lights work with the exception of the side mareker. Any ideas

The Hazards working properly, but the left turn signal not, is consistent with a defective turn signal switch or the connection to it.

However fix the side marker first to avoid unnecessary parts replacement.

Make sure the side marker socket has good connections to it.
