RE: IML: Flashing Front Turn Signal Light

["Carl F." <moonstruck1@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

HI Kent & Sally,

I agree with Dick Benjamin. The very 1st thought that I had was the 4-way flasher switch. These switches can be very 'touchy', so jiggle it a few times 1st.

If there's no change, then disconnect it entirely & see if the flashing stops.

My guess is that the 4-way switch is either wholly defective or has almost 40 years worth of "shmutz" ;) built up inside, causing the problem. A good cure is to gently disassemble the switch & use some tuner cleaner (Radio Shack etc) to clean it out. I've done the same with ALL of my P/W,P/L & dash switches & they're good as new!

Let us know what you find.

>Hello to All,

>Here is a new one on me and I'm stumped. The R Front turn signal flashes on and off on its own. The car is turned off and the light switch is off. Moving the turn signal switch does nothing. The turn signal lights in the R.Front only and not in the RR. Once the car is started the turn signal in the RR will work.  Any ideas.
