    No turn signal / hazards

    I'm testing the lights and can't get anything to the turn signals or hazards. I'm thinking the fact I'm seeing nothing, front or rear, means it may be higher upstream, like in the fuse box. Before I tear my dash apart, any suggestions?

    P.S. I'm getting nothing to the rear lights, so either it's tied to the same issue or I have a second issue most likely with the trailer converter.

    The power for the turn and hazard are not shared. Do you have the flashers in the fuse box? Are they grounded?

    Test at the switch to see if you have power. The directionals require the key on where the hazard power should be hot all the time.

    Nothing at the hazard switch? The turn signal? Or both?

    If you don’t have power at the pink wire at the hard switch or the grey wire at the signal switch (with the key on) you have an open. I would think a fuse but if you blew both of them you probably have a shirt somewhere.

    Anyway one thing at a time. Where do you and where do you bit have 12 volts.

    still figuring it out, I need to remove the dash to mess with it, so that'll be a weekend project...when I have a weekend

    but yeah, nothing at either of the switches.
