Sorry to get back toyou so late on this. Here are some thoughts on turn
signals: 1. the turn signal circuit runs off the ignition fuse. If the
signals continue operating after you have cut the ignition, somehow you've
crossed wired something. Have you replaced a fuse lately? check to see that
the fuse is seated properly adn is not in the space between the A1/A2 and
A3/A4 (igntion) fuse terminals. 2. If the flasher is bad, the liughts should
go on when you turn on the switch, but will not flash. 3. Test the lights by
running a test lead from fuse A1 tothe lamps themselves. If you get light,
the lamps are OK, and you can start working back from there. 4. Learn to
love your wiring diagram, and disconnect the wires from the switch. Get a
three-pole toggle switch at RadioShack,hook power to the middle terminal, the
left and right lines to the other terminals. Things should work. Power for
the directionals come from the ignition circuit--the same one that feeds the
wipers and the brake lamps. Your problem could be a simple as no power to
the lights. Hope this all helps--John Trifari 1955 BN1 Austin-Healey; 1980
