Posted August 14, 200717 yr comment_218529 when the right turn signal is on, the front light flashes but the back doesn't??left turn signal is fine. Brake lights/head lights fine. Bulbs/fuses been checked. Any ideas on what's going on? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/25216-turn-signal-frustration/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 14, 200717 yr comment_218531 Question: Does the right blinker blink at A) a faster rate, the same rate C) a slower rate than the left blinker?

August 14, 200717 yr comment_218532 Assuming it's the 240 you have..There's a 3 or 4 pin (I think) harness near the pass door under the dash. Can't find my FSM but there's a picture of each harness that would help. The 4 pin harness at the tail lamp can also act up. Mine did. Try unplugging and replugging. (Check voltage at pins while you're at it.)Did you check the sockets for corrosion and voltage?

August 14, 200717 yr comment_218538 This can also be faulty contacts inside the turn signal switch itself. Try this, turn on the right blinker, then step on the brakes. Let us know whether the right side brake lights come on or not.

August 15, 200717 yr Author comment_218620 Thanks for the feedback...yes, it is a 1970. Now that you mention it, the turn signals flash slower on the right(front) than the left back and front. Thanks to all for the comments. This is my 1st time on the site...you've all been very helpful.

August 15, 200717 yr comment_218641 Thanks for the feedback...yes, it is a 1970. Now that you mention it, the turn signals flash slower on the right(front) than the left back and front. Thanks to all for the comments. This is my 1st time on the site...you've all been very helpful.Here's my suggestion, based on experience.....just bit the bullet and order a new combo switch assy.! IIRC, they're about $90.00. Being over 30 years old, the current one you have is most likey just worn out. I went through a number of electrical issue when redoing my 1970 and many of the issues involved circuits that run through this switch assy. Once I replaced it....no more issues.Tom Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/25216-turn-signal-frustration/#findComment-218641 Share on other sites More sharing options...
August 15, 200717 yr comment_218652 OR.......Send the switches to me and I'll rebuild them both for only $40, for the pair.Arne is correct, The slide switch on your blinker assembly is most likely not making contact. I just went thru the same thing on my car.Jimmy Z is also correct in the fact that the plug on the right kick panel could need a nudge or 2. corrosion and grounds in the Z's are funny that way.If your interested in the service, email me at wolfin32zYahoo.comDave.
