my blinkers are out. i tihnk it is a fuse im just wondering. u know its the old style fuses and the dir. sig. fuse is red while the others look good. would that be it. might sound like a dumb question. im just a guy that likes to make sure.
ok oik thans. i havent accually had to deal with fuse boxes thats y im asking. whats it called a flasher unit? is there any special things i need to do to install it? my hands smell ike dirt and grease
nope flasher just unplugs. Just wondering, do your hazards work? Sometimes cars have two flasher units
2 flashers, one in the fuse box and one above the parking brake mechanisim (general area). 1 flasher for the hazard lights and 1 for the turning signals. In a pinch you can switch them to get turn signals back.
ghjfgh ok thanks which one is is for the blinkers? i guess it wouldnt realy matter and also by the parking mechanism u mean on the stearing column.? and in a pinch u mean take the good one out and drop it into the blinker spot? i just like to make sure
I think the blinkers is the one by the parking brake (the emergency brake). Take them and switch spots with them,
dsfg well heres the thing. i went out to check which is which. the one on the fuse box itself. the one u have labled turn signals. first i checkd to see what was working with that one in and the other one in as well. only the four ways worked. then i took the turn signals one out and neither the 4 ways or the blinkers worked. not is that because u hav it wrong and its vice verca or is that just a connection problem that occurs then that one is out? also is the one u have labled 4 ways hanging by some wires because mine looks different. i think it is the same but its see threw. thanks fo going threw the liberty of taking the pic.
The see thru one is just a newer version of the metal cans, and i am not sure but i think both have to be installed for the signals to work.
ewrre well i got the flasher tried it out. and nothing the 4 ways still work and the blinkers are still out. i dont know what to do now.
Patrick - I'm not sure about your car, but some Ford vans that I've worked on had the similar problem. I found out that if one or more of the turn signal bulbs are burned out, the turn signals won't work. Check to make sure you have good bulbs. Also, while you're at it, check the sockets to make sure they are not corroded or that the wires are loose/broken. Don't forget to use dielectric grease on the bulb bases. Mike
