Symptom: Turn and hazard warning lights do not operate (U.S. spec.)

Turn and hazard warning lights do not operate (U.S. spec.)

  1. 1
    Check HAZARD 15A fuse in the fuse box.
    Photo of the fuse box with the HAZARD 15A fuse identified by a callout arrow.

  2. 2
    If the fuse is burned replace it. Check and repair the wire harness, if necessary.
  3. 3
    If the fuse is OK, go to Step 2.

Step 2 — Check turn and hazard warning flasher unit

Check turn and hazard warning flasher unit

  1. 1
    Remove the turn and hazard warning flasher unit.
    Ohmmeter probing the turn-and-hazard flasher unit connector. Below the photo is the connector pin layout with pins labeled a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h.
    05U0TX-302
  2. 2
    Check continuity between terminals of the unit with an ohmmeter.
    Set the ohmmeter to ×1000Ω range.
  3. 3
    If not as specified, replace the flasher unit.
  4. 4
    If the flasher unit is OK, reconnect the connector and go to Step 3.

Step 3

Check turn signal switch

  1. 1
    Remove the knee protector, then disconnect the turn signal switch connector.
    Schematic of the turn signal switch and the turn-and-hazard warning flasher unit. Left side shows switch contacts B, IG, FU feeding TL/TR; right side shows flasher unit internal connections with terminals TL, FU, TR. Three round symbols at the bottom denote lamps.

  2. 2
    Check continuity between terminals of the switch.
  3. 3
    If not as specified, replace the turn signal switch.
  4. 4
    If the turn signal switch is OK, reconnect the connector and go to Step 4.
