Another blinker thread...
OK,
My left blinkers work fine - outside the car...
the light on the instrument cluster and on the HUD do not come on though...
Right side is normal.
I have been known to do some work on my car from time to time. It is possible that I've knocked something loose under the dash. I've looked it all over and wiggled eveything electrical under there. Still doent work...
Any thoughts?
Thanks.

With Signal blinking, check voltage at Circuit #14. Post if you have it there, Then we'll know which way to go.

I disagree with the hazard switch being the culprit, especially if the front turn signals are functioning normally. From the hazard switch flasher, 12 volts is routed through the MFS, to the IP fuse block, where it splits..supplying 12 volts to the IPC turn signal indicator, and on through the DRL relay to the front turn signal itself. So if the front turn signals are working normally, it suggests that the 12 volts flasher is working normally,and the MFS is fine.

Yup, the hazard is just the flasher in normal operation.... nothing in it's connections would affet the dash indicator only.
The problem has got to be the left signal feed where it goes to the instrument panel.

From the two schematics it appears that feed comes through the MFS switch as already mentioned. Hmmm...

The hazard switch is wrongly pointed out as the cause of any signal problems so many times that the real problem needs re-enforced....

Basically, I was correcting my incorrect post after seeing the schematics that were posted. I was in no way trying to claim credit from you or anything similar. I was wrong with the hazard switch which is where many blinker issues arise but the schematics tell the tale.

Thanks guys for this info...
I went out the next day to work and trouble shoot some more. I got called away for some reason, and never made it back. I've been really busy at work, so I have not been able to finish the project.
However, I took it for a drive the other day and it is working fine...
So, if it acts up again, I'll work through your schematics, but for now, I'll just drive it.
