turn signal flasher location? Signals not working

It could be defective flasher here is its location to make sure you are changing the right one also here are the blinker wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works as well.

Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.

I tried 3 different new turn signal flashers, hazards work fine!. Note that when I say I wired a trailer, the truck already had a four prong trailer plug on it so I did not wire the truck, just wired trailer lights on a trailer and connected 4 prong to the truck existing 4 prong.

Check Fuse #16 15amp fuse in the i/p fuse block

This guide can help as well.

Please run down this guide and report back

I disconnected trailer wiring and fuses seem good. Again, hazards work, reverse and brake lights work. If I press down hard on hazard light button and hold, turn signal flasher clicks!! and not sure why since there is a seperate hazard flasher and turn signal flasher

Check for voltage coming into turn signal switch purple wire(12volt), if ok activate turn signal, looking for voltage coming out of turn signal switch on either light blue or yellow (left signal). or dark green/dark blue(right signal). If you have voltage on purple wire and nothing coming out on the mentioned wires, suspect turn sig. switch

I fixed it the turn signal switch has bad! thanks for your help on this I love this site.

Glad you could get it fixed, that kind of problem can be tough. Please use 2CarPros anytime we are here to help

when i bought the truck i had the turn signal switch replaced thinking that was the problem but that did not fix it

also when i had the new switch installed he told me part of the ignition had low power

check your fuses in the ip panel like #7 for the power outlets and also maxi fuse 7 for the wiper and power outlet in the underhood fuse box. there is also a circuit breaker or should be in teh ip fuse box for the power outlet. check fuse 16 in ip box for turn signals then try replacing the flasher behind the centrof the i/p Also ther eis a stoplamp relay underhood l/r center of engine. check all your grounds on ip to make sure they are tight and clean. same thing with engine and body grounds.

changed relays and fuses still nothing and my truck will not hold charge (i need to jump start it) to get it on is my daily driver really need to fix quickly if you have any idea what the problem is i would greatly appreciate it thank you have a nice night/day :)

check battery for condition including load test most places do for free replace the turn signal flasher in convenience center lh side of dash near steering column . then do a parasitic draw test . our site how to repair electrical battery item 9

Thank You For the Advice Hmac300 Thanks

My left side rear turn signal and brake light are not working. When I try to use the signal, the inside arrow blinks very fast. The front left turn signal works fine. We changed the bulb and the fuse is fine.

Check and test the brake switch if okay-test the turn and hazard switch

there is power going to the plug in but the light just won't work. The front turn signal blinks really fast

Check the bulbs for an open filament and also the ground circuit

Did that. Took the "circuit board" (?) from the other side and tried it on that side and it worked fine so tomorrow I'm going to replace the one on the side that isn't working. Thanks for your help.

I turn on my r turn signal and it does not flash on my cluster but it does work both front and back

the light may be burnt out on cluster or it may be a cluster going bad.

my right turn signal does not flash on my cluster but it does work outside of the truck both front and back

Do both indicators work on the dash when using the emergency flashers?

If it's the same story, your bulb in the dash may be blown or maybe is not making a good connection

1 bulb has to be out! if your sure u can try replacing all the bulbs to fix it.

no

heres whats doing on. I have an erradic oil guage. I replaced the sending unit. still erradic. tried a used cluster still the same. before trying any thing the signals and emerg. flashers were working. now my daylight running lights don't work at all either. its seems like the lights that are supposed to work are all going wacky one by one, is there some kind of module that powers all the lights that could be going bad?

DO U STILL NEED HELP

Problem is on rear driver turn/brake lamp. Same filament in bulb for both. After a year, buld burned out. Replaced it, and a day later it burned out. Same time frame for third replaced bulb. Relay is good. Fuse is good. No moisture in lamp case or connector. Assuming it is not brake switch on brake pedal because the othe side works fine. Wiring is good, at least to where it joins the otherside, in which case it is wrapped and has black plastic wireway to from the back to the dash. If it is a short(which I now assume) have any ideas on where? Anyone with a similar problem? I am hesitant to tear out all the wiring, northeast ohio is cold and sleety right now! Thanks.

Hi:
Are you sure the socket is good? When the bulb goes bad, have you checked it for continunity to make sure it was truly bad? Keep in mind, they are 12 volt bulbs and that is all that is generated unless the voltage regulator is bad and you getting an overcharge. In that case, it would do more than one bulb.

Let me know what you find with the socket and the continuity test.

Joe,

it actually turned out to be the PCB board. I took this out of the housing and with the lights set to on I applied pressure to the circuit traces(which were not exposed to skin so no electrocution!) when I did this I got a connection. turns out the traces burned out so I soldered up the gap and has worked fine since.

Thanks!

Hi:
So were you loosing power to the bulb? I'm glad you found and fixed the problem. Have a great new year and let us know if you have questions in the future.

joe

My left turn signal works but it blinks fast,so I thought I had a bad bulb.This is not the case though as ever light works just fine but the left side just blinks fast.also brakelights work just fine.

thanks,sooneroidkc

do the turn signal lamps flash quickly with the hazard switch on as well?

I have a 97 chevy Cheyenne. The problem I am having is that when I am driving my signal relay is clicking like I have the signal on when I don't. The clicking stops when I push on the brakes and then comes on again when I release the brakes. I thought it was the relay, so I replaced this and the problem is still there. All the lights are operational as well. Can anyone help?

Hello, I have heard of this on other models. It may be a problem with the multifunction switch.

1995 chev truk. when i hit the brake pedal the turn signals on th dash and th park lights come on brite. dont flash. and turn signals dont flash when the blinker is used.

Check for ground problems. The power is backfeeding throught that circuit and turning the lights on.
