Turn Signals

carfever64 · 09-14-2008, 10:19 AM

I have a 67 Mustang. I have slowly been restoring it. I am working on the dash making sure all the lights work before I put the new dash
bezel on. Is there anyway to be sure that the turn signal switch is bad before I spend $100 bucks on one? My parking lights work. My brake lights work. My emergency lights work. I have a wiring manual.
I have power going to the flasher as it should but when you turn
the signal on it does nothing. If you have the brake light on and turn
the signal on the light goes out completely. I ran a power wire to the
turn signal switch and when you make contact with the hot wire the
light comes on. Please help

So you have power running to the flasher, but it wont work unless you run a different power cable to it? Guess im kinda confused. You are definately on the right track with the wiring diagram.
