Re: [Chrysler300] 300-F - Turn Signal Question

[Ray Jones <hurst300@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Technically you're right, however, what makes them blink is the total 
amount of Wattage used in the circuit. I just thought that it would be 
easier to at least see if the voltage is the same with both switch 
positions. If there is a voltage drop on one side, then the current 
flow is reduced and the flasher won't heat up and open to make them 
blink.
In any event, you seem to have a differance between the Ing and Acces. 
sides of the switch. And since you did not mention any other problem, 
it seems that the trouble is in the wiring.
Good luck, Ray

I'm going to check the voltage at the bulbs now, but I would think that 
the flasher operates on amperage, rather than voltage. But I'm not an 
electrician. I'll go over now and see what the voltage is on both sides 
at all bulbs.

P.S. As I mentioned, I'm not an electrician, but it seems like a gnawed 
wire could reduce amperage, but not voltage -- on a 12V circuit 
anyway...
