[TR] TR250 emergency flashers

[Roger Elliott]

Hi,

The emergency flashers on my wife's TR250 don't work.  I was looking at 
the wiring diagram.

There is a Purple and Red wire that goes from the Hazard Switch to the 
Hazard Relay to the Hazard Flasher.  The wire goes back into the wiring 
harness between the relay and the flasher.

If I connect a jumper from the purple and red terminal on the flasher to 
the purple and red terminal on the relay, the flasher work fine.

I would like to fix this without an extra wire hanging loose.

Does anyone know if the purple and red wire from the hazard relay to the 
hazard flasher just goes into the harness and comes back out? The 
diagram doesn't show it going anywhere else.

How difficult would it be to unwrap the harness find and fix the break 
in the wire (assuming that is what the problem is) and wrap it back up 
and have it look right?

What is used for the wrapping?  I believe it should be something besides 
electrical tape.

Thanks
