blinker problem

my blinkers dont work, when i flip the switch up or down, they do nothing....when i flip the hazzard switch, they turn on and stay solid...would this be cause theres not a full circuit or maybe a flasher relay is bad?

well first off you do not mention anything about checking the binker fluid...Check the FSM for instructions on how to its pretty tricky.


J/K on a serious note it sounds like the flasher is bad but start with the fuse and verify you have power there with a test light or multimeter.

did you have power at the fuse? Also did you replace the flasher?

they have power....when i first started playing with the blinkers they would make that clicky noise a few times then stop....no when i turn my hazzard switch on, that little box down behind the glove box clicks ones then my blinkers just light up solid....maybe that little box is bad?

if you put led light in place of the regular lights it will not work for whatever reason, but i had to use the original lights which i zip tied in the engine compartment and run wires off them to my led's
