Default Need help badly
I posted earlier that I had no right rear turn signal or flasher. All others work. I've checked and rechecked the connections for the euro conversion I did 5 years ago and everything looks good. It is not getting any power to ths sockets. I checked the ground plug back tere and it looks good. A couple of people said change the flasher modual and I did today and still no help. Anyone got any ideas.
Thanks Laurence

Bad Turn Signal Stalk. Could try spraying in electrical cleaner.


How many miles on the car ?

bingo!!!!!! just get a new stalk and replace it. I went through this exact same issue you are describing. let me know if you need a write up on how to change it. it is a simple enough fix and shouldn't cost too much for the part.
