Hi guys,

Have some weird issues with my turnsignal lights on the dash.
Car is a 74 2.0 with the two arrows flashing at the same time. A while ago all of a sudden the brakelight warning light and turnsignal lights on the dash started flashing. Assumed the turnsignal relay failed so replaced with a uro one I had laying around. No change, I even had got a buzzing sound. Disconnected the single wire on the brakeswitch (at the MC) and the brake warning light went out but also I no longer had turnsignal lights on the dash. Everything outside works fine (left/right turnsignals, 4 way turnsignals, lights etc).

I installed a new brakeswitch, reconnected the single wire and once again installed a new turnsignal relay. Same issue, brakewarning light + L/R flashing. Disconnected the single wire to stop the brake warning light.

Now the flashing of the L/R light on the dash is intermittent. It looks like everytime I use the brakepedal the flashing stops.... Not only when braking, building up pressure, but realy as from the moment I touch the pedal .... Thought that perhaps I need to bleed the brakes (MC, no leaks) but it is kinda strange that the flashing stops even with a light touch on the pedal. I fried my brakeswitch on the pedal a couple of months ago and a new one is in.

Any thoughts ?

Hello, promised to report back ...

As you could see in my other post I cleaned up my bottom (of the car (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ), installed rebuild brakes, new bushings on the a-arms and installed a new 19 mm master cylinder
and bled the brakes...

It looks like my issue with the turnsignals/relay is history... My stock 17mm mastercylinder seemed to be the culprit. Would have never guessed that.

greetings
