<DIV><FONT size=2>If the left-hand flashes OK then it's not the flasher unit,
there is one flasher unit for the hazards and one for the turn
signals.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>When one side glows but doesn't flash the problem is in the
circuit that side. The original flasher units needed a certain amount of
current to flash properly, and if that current reduces they flash
slower or stop. If one bulb fails the other will glow continuously, but
that should be obvious by checking both ends.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>If both are glowing then either one or both bulbs is too low a
wattage or there are bad connections in the circuit. These need patience
to resolve by measuring volt-drops through the circuit, this may help <A

<DIV><FONT size=2>However if this only started when the turn switch was replaced
you should check the connections there first, making sure the two connectors are
fully pushed together and none of the pins have been pushed out of the
back.</FONT></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>A friend is having problems with the turn signals on a 1980
B. He’s replaced the left-hand switch unit (turn signals &
horn). Left-hand signals flash, and 4-ways flash, but the right-hand
signals only light steadily. He’s located the one flasher unit, but can
hear another one clicking <U>somewhere</U> and can’t locate it -- where
should he look?</P></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
