k I got this POS 88 sedan at work that doesnt have any blinkers. I checked all the bulbs, checked all the fuses, switched out all the relays under the dash that I could see. And they still dont work. Put a different switch in the car off a column of the same year, still nothing

 

The flasher unit is the lil black box that is attached to the relay bracket correct?

 

Anyone got an ideas?

Check out this earlier post from Tom Rhere:

 

 

If the front and rear TS bulbs are lit, it would point towards the flasher(s) being bad, (or missing). There's 2 flashers, 1 for TS, 1 for E-Flashers. And yes, they are "fun" to get to...

 

Now, (some FYI here), if the rear TS bulb is blown, your front one and the dash indicator will light but not blink. If a front one blows, the rear and dash indicator will blink rapidly. This is only for the TS system. The E-F will/should blink regardless if a bulb is out. This is providing that the flasher unit(s) are good.

 

You can use either flasher unit in either circuit. Putting an E-F unit on the TS will slow the blink rate slightly. Putting a TS unit on the E-F will speed up the blink rate. I usually use the heavy-duty E-F unit on both circuits. This will be benificial if you tow a trailer, as the TS bulbs on the trailer will change the blink rate due to added load on circuit.

well I went back to work and checked that car out again. Started looking at the dash. kinda looked like someone had tried to take it apart before. So I pulled the trim over the cluster, found the hazard plug was unhooked from the switch.

 

Wasted 4 hours on a damn unplugged switch... lol
