1995 Nissan Pickup - Turn signal issue

how about replacing the hazzard flasher...its the big round jobber at the fuse block.....just a thought

If the light remians on why the heck you thing the bulb is bad??? You see the light, correct? so bulb is not burned or I migh tbe crazy?

What might be bad is the relay if there any, that drives this bulb, that is stuck in "closed" position i.e. always on and no longer opens. If not relay then it's the electronic circuit that drives the relay. If not, then you investigate further down the circuit from bulb towards turn-signal switch itself, may be swutch is stuck-closed.

I agree with Mark: If the bulb lights, it's NOT bad.

I have the '95 truck (& PF) service manual. No relays. Just a dirt simple circuit where the flasher supplies an intermittent voltage, and the turn signal switch and hazard switch distributes it to the appropriate bulbs. All three bulbs (front, rear, dash) on each side are in parallel, so if they behave differently, there's a wiring problem.

Based on the orignal description of the problem, I think there's some damaged wiring, probably in the front, that's shorted some of the headlight wiring to some of the turn signal wiring.. Was truck in an accident? The headlight circuit is quite independet of the turn signal circuit. Since the turn signals work OK when the headlights are off, turn signal switch, hazard switch, flasher, and fuses are OK.

And now that I think about it, the wiring damage is probably right around the front headlights or turn signals. Anything else would have made something else not work.
