Turn signal

Turn signal relay clicks (in dash ) but no indicator (in dash ) or lights on the car work. The stalk handle is wiggly. The right side
works fine.

OK, archives say one bulb on one side leaves all the lights on that side out.

i'm diagnosing turn signal problem too. Front left turn signal does not illuminate, back turnsignal remains on continously when left turn signal switch enaged. Turn on parking lights and left turn signal indicator on dash stays on continously.

after looking at schematics, it appears as though there is a problem with the ground behind the left headlight. will see for sure tomorrow.

Wire to the front marker light was grounding to frame. This blew fuses for the 4-way flasher and allowed the right turn signal to work fine. I would rather replace just about any water pump,belt,hose,radiator etc. than chase an electrical problem. I removed rear taillights and was about to pull the steering wheel before discovering the frayed wire up front (I guess its a bad location to keep the oil fill funnel ) . My turn signal lever will fall apart sometime, however, it seemes loose.

glad you found your problem.

the left front light headlight/turn signal wiring under the hood is troublesome because the wiring harness runs very close to the battery.
