Posted May 7, 20231 yr comment_653420 Just noticed my left and right turn signal light not working. Any clues on where i should start? I guess it could be the tired relay. The intermittent switch does work and the bulbs all around work.

May 7, 20231 yr comment_653421 Did you try your flashers? That will verify good bulbs. Easy enough to change the flasher.

May 8, 20231 yr Author comment_653429 Problem fixed. I guess it was a bad contact. I also found a spare one i purchased many years ago identical as the one installed. Is this model correct for this application?

May 10, 20231 yr comment_653488 That flasher will work just fine. It will even work if you switch to LED bulbs.

May 10, 20231 yr comment_653497 That same unit will also work for your hazard lights. That flasher can is mounted at the top of the passenge side kick panel. I switched out to these units years ago and love the performance improvement, all with incandescent bulbs.

May 11, 20231 yr Author comment_653532 I believe the original relays were metal cans. Am i right? Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/68324-left-and-right-turn-signal-light-not-working-no-flash-no-click-any-clue/#findComment-653532 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OE cans are "thermal" - they use a bi-metal strip that heats and cools at differing rates depending on the flow of the electrical current. They usually operate more slowly at idle and then speed up as engine revs increase. The newer units are termed electro-mechanical, operate at a constant rate independent of the engine speed.

They typically have a metal tab for a small screw to mount to a surface. The new ones usually have a plastic case, no mounting tab. You can glue a tab to the case for the mounting screw.
