Default Turn signal electrical question...

Hey guys I've got a problem with my wiring.

Whenever i turn on my turn signals i get nothing. No click from the flasher, no lights on the outside of the car, no lights inside the car. When i hit my brakes both left and right interior signal lights come on, and the brake lights work fine. The fuse for the turn signals is good. What could be wrong? Is it the flasher unit? Where is the flasher unit on our cars? I looked up by the fuses but didn't see it.

Thanks in advance, Mike Cook

you could check the flasher. It is just behing the dash panel with the map pocket. it is the size of a golf ball and they cost around $5-10.

You may be not getting a good ground. There are alot of ground wires, and they can cause headaches. When I got my vette last year, I had NO lights at all, no horn, and the list goes on and on. Although I found numerous problems in my wiring, bad grounds were 75% of my troubles.

Good luck,

Loren
