1971 914-4
New to me Starting to sort out some things. First up- turn signals. The fuse box is missing it's cover, but the second fuse from the far right is missing...and adding one in immediately shorts. So I pulled the flasher (as recommended on Rennlist before I found you guys!) And tested continutiy between #49 and left and right...nothing. The flasher isnte working. Then I noticed a newer/modern looking relay hanging out behind the fuse panel...it's operating the turn signals. My suppostionn is that they have bypassed emergency flasher? I got the turn signals working with cleaning the bulb sockets and using a little dilectic grease. Id love to get the emergency flashers operating...has anyone else elese had anything like this? Thanks in advance. |

From what I can tell ..the emergency flasher module also controls the turn signals (in the factory setup). There is no relay on the back of the fuse panel for turn signals. Looks like they have spliced in this relay for some reason.
I am going to reach out the PO and see what her recollection of it is. |
