We have a strange electrical problem on my sons 75 six conversion. With the engine running you can hear the flasher relay clicking slowly (should not be activated at this time) and when you put on either turn signal the bulbs flash extremely fast. Also if you set the emergency brake the red light in the gauge rapidly flashes with the engine running. If you shut the engine off and leave the ingition on all turn signals and emergency brake light flash normally. We checked grounds by the fuse panel, engine bay , transmission strap, front trunk area etc. and all are good. We checked bulbs and tried a new flasher relay and still the problem exists. We tried disconnecting the emergency brake bulb and also the turn signal bulbs in the gauges but that didn't help. We disconnected the tach and the problem was still there. Has anyone ever experienced this problem? I was hopeing DD could shed some insight into this issue.
Thanks!!! |

Does the turn signal lamp in the tach flash when the flasher is blinking slowly with the engine on?
Spoke, No, the lamp does not flash when the flasher is blinking slowly with the engine running. I also had the engine running and turned off the lights in the garage and looked to see if any lights through out the entire car were dimly lit or flashing and could not see anything but still heard the flasher relay clicking. Thanks |
