I've been having this issue with my turn signals. Sometimes they would work and sometimes they didn't (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I thought maybe it was the switch so I swapped it out with another one I have but it didn't help. Actually they don't work at all now. I cleaned the metal on the steering wheel that contacts the turn signal switch. I checked my fuses and they are all good. I did notice that if I had the turn signal on with the key on the side marker light will stay on. Any suggestions on what to do next. I'm at a loss! thanks Scott |

How about providing the year of the car. Different year 914's have different steering wheel controls.
Split the problem in half. Start with either the circuit between the battery and the relay or the relay to the lights. My advice: Start with the relay to light circuit. Drop the relay board (under the dash) and check the fittment of the relays. Then with the car off, temporarily run a positive line from the battery to the positive side of the trace (relay output). Check to see if your signals light. If not, time to check grounds and circuit continuiety. However, I would bet that the problem is on the other side of the relay. I just like to check the easy to test part first so that I know I'm not wasting my time. Eric |
