I noticed it at lunch today. The blinker indicator in the dash would flash 4 or 5 times, then stop.
Coming home I tried the e-flashers. Same deal. Maybe 7 flashes then OUT. Try the left side, 2 flashes, right side 4 flashes.... then OUT. Now I get no flashes at all. Got a few honey do things to knockout this afternoon then I will start poking around. Figured I'd start with the fuse, then relay. Seeing how it is the flasher and the blinker, I will rule out the lever and such in the column. How do you test a relay anyway? Chime in with some thoughts. Thanks, Clark |

So here is my attempt at testing this baby. Seem correct? NO CLICK = BAD?
I used a 12V drill battery..... + on batt to 49 - on batt to 31 relay was quiet, no clicking. with 12v applied as above: VOM + to 49a VOM - to 31 VOM reads 12.8V VOM + to C VOM - to 31 VOM reads: jumping around, slowly rising from 6V to 9V I am thinking I should use a light vs the digital VOM since it may not react to the "flash". |
