Grrrrrr!!! Must be low on blinker fluid!

Do they all stay lit without blinking, or not work at all? Likely the flasher relay if they light, but do not blink. (There are two for the 98's I believe, one for directionals and one for the 4-ways.)

If they don't light at all, you probably have a short somewhere in the circuit, either in the wiring, a socket, the TS switch itself or even a defective bulb. This may be a good time to make friends with a good automotive electrical tech. They're a rare breed, but worth every penny.

Have you done any work lately that came anywhere near wiring? I once dropped the steering column on a '64 Dodge to replace the TS switch. When I bolted it back up, I managed to trap some wiring and crushed it all up against the grounded steed dash, shorting out 4 or 5 different circuits at once. So much for DIY stuff.

They don't light up at all =(. I was doing wiring with the stereo... blew a couple fuses before.. caused stuff like speedometer to not work and power locks to not work.. but not blinkers. Now, I've screwed myself pretty bad I think. *sigH*.

See if that second fuse blew. Sounds like you need someone more electrically inclined... :p

Definitely seems so now... my brake lights aren't working. That is, the side

1. The one in the center DOES work. So, blinkers & brake lights. Hmmm... any thoughts?

Sell it to me for a dollar, heh..

I would start back at square one. That being, remove the radio (don't reinstall the factory radio), and see if that helps. If not, re-install the factory radio and see if that helps. I've heard things about the mach 460 stereo being almost impossible to replace...

HTH

Try and cycle the hazard switch on and off a couple of times. These run through this switch and if the contacts inside aren't made will cause no blinkers and only the center brake light to operate (alot of times one front turn signal will flash only)

Tim sent me a private email saying this as well... turned out to be the problem!! I totally forgot I tried to turn on the hazard lights & b/c they didn't work I didn't try to turn 'em back off! Tim thank you so much!! You are the man!!!!!

So, your 4-ways don't work now? Jeez Mike, if you owned a cemetary, no one would die.

Get it here:

They do.. but I hafta try 2-3 times before they will.

There is NO WAY I would pay $60 an hour for a one second wonder.
