T/S switch

[GILDIA]

HI to all, i am re-wiring the Z (72) but I can not find a T/S flash SW, does anyone know where is this switch located ? i Think it could be under the dash but not sure where, in the diagram it appears with a white and a green wire attached to it and the green wire goes to the hazard switch and the white wire goes to the combo switch

Thank you

Carlos;

The Turn Signal Switch is part of the combination switch.

The Turn Signal Stalk, the lever you push up or down, pivots on the housing that clamps to the steering column. The switch you're looking for is on the opposite side of the pivot as the turn signal lever.

Here's a picture:

The switch on the right hand side of the picture is the turn signal switch, the white portion with the Red/Yellow wire is the High/Low Beam switch.

That loose black wire coming from both the left and right halves (meaning not part of the bundled wires) gets connected to each other. That's the common ground between the switches.

Here's another that may help;

Thanks E, Actually the first picture is the picture of my combo switch, i could figure the headlights (but i still don't have the hi beam), but these white and green wires from the diagram I can't figure them out, I don't know where to connect them, I dont see any white nor green wire comming from the combo switch, perhaps you can tell me where to connect them,

Thanks for the help

This is the diagram I have for the T/S switch, as you can see it seems like if the switch is out of the combo switch, so I was wondering if this could be a Flasher, i read in one of your post that this cars used 2 flashers, one for the T/S and one for the Hazard

[EScanlon]

That's exactly what it is. It's a FLASHER.

For your year it usually gets mounted on the dash support behind either the steering column or the center part of the dash.

The Hazard Flasher usually ends up by the passenger kick panel.

Hope this helps

Thanks E, I just found the relay, it is under the dash and behind the seteering column, Since I am re-wiring from scratch, Can I move the location of this flasher to the passenger side so i Can have all th relays togheter in one location?

Thanks E, as always your info is of great help.

[EScanlon]

Yes, the distance shouldn't matter.

Thanks E, well i think I am ready to put the new wires for the hazard siwtch, the turn signal, and the stop, I'll let you know what happens, By the way the Headlight are working but I can get the Hi beam to work, any advice

Thanks

Check the ground wire between the combination switch halves.

Without it, the switch won't finish the ground for the circuit, although your having any lights at all would lead me to believe it's ok. So, you might check that you have a working switch. That is, that it makes contact to ground in either position.

As a last item, check that you have voltages at both connections with respect to ground and you should be ok.

Hope this helps
