Turn signal Malfunction

[Bambikiller240]

Hi Keith:

Wild arse Guess....Have you examined the back of the fusebox to see if there is any sign of heat damage there at the fuse connectors? I've heard that this is a weak point in the electrical system and can raise havoc with components.

I'll be following your progress, as I need all the help I can get with electrical stuff. I "SAVE" a lot of information from member experiences to help me later.

Best of Luck!

Okay,

I have switched the front cable connectors to the turn signal bulb sockets and now I have parking lights. I also reconnected all of the underdash connection after cleaning and cleaned the rear bulb sockets (they had considerable buildup on them).

The battery has been drained to a point that there may not be enough voltage to engage the signals. No signal yet...will charge the battery and update...

Also put new bulbs in front signal sockets again.

Thanks.

Keith

Sounds Frustrating. Hope you get it sorted.

My 72 240z indicates right most of the time, but if i move the lever too far down, it's like i've turned the indicator off. I know this is just a fault with the switch. My Solution dont push the lever all the way down.

My headlight switch was worn too. No headlights. I fixed that by pulling it apart and replacing the sprung plastic dooverlackies that push the copper switch plate down onto the contacts with plastic ones i had made.
