troubleshooting broken turn signals/hazard/reverse lights

Postby laffycaffi » Sun Jun 18, 2017 1:10 pm

As of last week, the following were not working:
* brake lights
* hazard lights
* reverse lights
* turn signals

I replaced the brake switch and I have brake lights now. But everything else is not working.

First thing I'd like to fix are the turn signals, but I'm suspicious that it's also related to hazard lights. Any thoughts on that?

If you were in my shoes, what would be the first thing you'd check?

Thanks,
Mark

everything runs through the turn signal switch in the column.

subscribed. I am having some similar issues. So perhaps the advice would also apply to mine??

There is a turn flasher and a hazard flasher. Both are powered from separate sources. You should probably start at the flashers and see if you have any power there. If not, look at the fuses.
