Signal Lights Do Not Work!!!

My signal lights are completely non-functional except when I turn on the hazard switch then all four light up like normal. Here is a list of things that I have checked:

Fuses - I checked the signal fuse, then just to make sure I was not mistaken I double checked the rest of them too.

Bulbs - Before I decided to check the hazard lights I went ahead and replaced every bulb.. They were getting old anyways.

Combination Switch - I took apart the steering column to inspect the combination switch and saw nothing wrong. Just to make sure I removed the switch and scrubbed the leads clean with steel wool.

The the only thing that I can think of that I have not checked is the flasher module which would make sense because the in-dash signal indicators do not light up when I flip the signal switch. I do not know anything about where it would be in the car or how to replace it. I just remember reading an inconclusive thread about this same problem awhile back where flasher modules where suggested. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The turn signal flasher is clipped onto the fuse panel, as delivered from the factory.

However if it has been replaced it might just be hanging in the maze of wires.

It’s round and approximately 1¼” diameter.


Happy Racing!

Re: Signal Lights Do Not Work!!!

Okay so it is a cylindrical piece of plastic.. Am I looking for just one wire going in to each end or multiple wires?
