TexasQuest Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 Did you use an EL-12 flasher unit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indiana Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 If BOTH rear bulbs ,the front one in the bumper and the side marker aren't all working, it won't flash. You don't need any special flasher,you need bulbs that are all working so there's enough amps being drawn on that circuit so that the metal strip/spring inside the flasher bends (it heats up and changes shape) and disconnects, then it cools off and reconnects and cycles that's how they flash.

Starfighterpilot Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 What is indicated voltage at the dash? If it drops down below 12 V when the flasher flashes and you replaced the flasher with the EL-12 flasher and all of the turn indicator light bulbs light up then it's time to check your grounds in the engine house See http://starquest.i-x...2315623aa535d03 Your fusible link box #2 metal terminals connectors and/or the big black plastic connector (A-33/34) metal terminals under fusible link box #2 may also be corroded. See http://starquest.i-x...opic.php?t=1180 In the fuse block under the dash also check that the fuse #13 female metal retainers tightly grip the fuse's male metal retainers. Ya might also want to replce the fuse. For What It's Worth KEN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAinsworth Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Are you sure you changed out your blinker relay and not the hazard light relay? The hazard light relay is round but the blinker relay is rectangular and is next to the round one.Jimmy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do what I recommended below. For What It's Worth. KENWhat is indicated voltage at the dash?
