Bus 9 prong help needed

Dec 19, 2003 1 Replies

Here's the issue with Hazards; I don't have any, with the ignition switch off I pull the Hazard switch and nothing. With the Ignition switch on the Hazard switch light will flash. Nothing blinks front or back. Turn signals work like they should. I tried another 9 prong box and it flashed rapidly, made a strange noise and eventually the turn signal light would stay on until I turned it off with the indicator switch. When I pull the Hazard switch with that one it would do the same as the turn signals; blink rapidly, go solid and make noise. Ok bad 9 prong.



With this one everything functions but the Hazards. Is it possible for just the Hazard function of the 9 prong to fail and the rest not? If so is there a work around so I can the 9 prong in place for the turn signals and get flashers to work or should I just use one of Matt's solutions in Type2.com?

I don't have a schem for the innards and neither did Matt

for those not familiar but there is one relay inside which operates to connect both Left and Right signals together for Hazard.

My experience is that the relay contacts weren't very reliable (corrosion?) Break the thing open for a look-see.
