hello to all: I have been fighting the dreaded turn signal problem which has been discussed so much on this board. On my 240z all turn signals work except the right rear. I have tried cleaning the switch, replaced the hazard switch, replaced both flasher relays, etc. but have had no success. I decided to run a new wire from the turn signal switch (green wire/black stripe) back to the lamp. This fixed my turn signal but now when I step on the brakes, my right turn signal indicator on the dash lights! I then decided to tap into the wire at the hazard switch (red wire/yellow stripe) and still get the same results. I know how most of you feel about screwing with the factory wiring and all, but since I am not "hacking" into any wires and just using a splice block to cut a nick in the insulation to gain contact. If anyone who is better at reading those darn wiring diagrams could help me out and possibly tell me the right wire to hook to it would be so appreciated. thanks...

dhoneycutt: I live on Grand Junction Thanks everyone for the replies. I am sure it is something simple such as a bad wire or connection, I just cant seem to find it I have tried new bulbs and 3 different tailight harnesses Thanks again

Hello, I am new to this board and have a few questions. First off I would like to say I have read all of the many posts on blinker problems and tried many of the suggestions with no success. the car: 1972 240 z The problem: Right rear turn signal doesnt work. I can get a test light to light occasionally at the taillight harness, but it is much dimmer than at the left. I have tried cleaning both the turn signal switch and the hazard switch. I have also replaced both of their flashers (relays). I have current at the hazard swith and the blinker switch. What are the 2 plugs that go through the floor at the rear of the car near the taillight panel? one has 1 wire , and the other has 2 wires. I ask this because when I put my test light into the plug with 2 wires it rapidly flashes, at a rate different than the hazards or blinker. I t does this flashing even when both hazard and blinker switches are off. I belive this is a ground problem, a but I am unsure where the ground to the rear blinkers is located. Thanks, any and all advice is appreciated. Cory Thompson
