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 |

OK... The bench test results are above. I just installed the flasher relay into the car.
Turned the key on and the BRAKE light is flashing and the relay is clicking. as expected Start the car All blinkers work as expected E-flashers work. Here is the question. 49 - 31 I get 12.8v with the key on and or the car running. I release the brake and the clicking and flashing stops. BUT with the car still running and the relay inserted, but the terminals are accessible. I check the voltage between ground and 49a and I get 13V I check the voltage between ground and C and I get 13V.[b] No clicking, nothing flashing. Is that right? What is going on? |
