I was driving home from work one day, and while driving, suddenly noticed that my headlights and dashboard went out for a split second, and came back on with the air bag light, which dissapeared a few seconds later. After this incident, my turn signals and hazards no longer work.

They sometimes work for short periods of time (10 minutes or so) when I change it's fuse in the relay beneath the steering wheel or if I play with the turn signal bulbs a bit (remove them/change them around) but other than that, they don't work.

What steps should I take to get them working again? Anything would be helpful .. this can be potentially very dangerous on the road.

 

flasher relay under dash

 

If i were you I'd check the fuses. Just to be safe

 

It was the flasher relay, thanks guys.

 

Just FYI, both circuits also flow through the hazard button. Neither will work if the button is not plugged in/loose/faulty.

 

YOU ARE WELCOME!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Hey guys I just bought a 00 Max and have the same problem. What exactly needs to be done once I get to the relay? (I know absolutely nothing about this car.....yet)

Please help me out. As mentioned above, this is very dangerous.

I should also note that I checked all the fuses and everything checked out. so...what exactly is the relay and what did you do to fix it? I'm scared to take stuff apart...like I said I dont know much about the car yet. Literally just purchased today.

Thanks again for any help.

 

Take it back to where you bought it and have them fix it? Isn't there some rule about selling cars that won't pass inspection?

 

i have same problem i keep blowing fuses signal and hazard.i change fuse and flasher from dealer still blow it out. i check for short in harness found nothing. i order new hazard switch i get on wednesday? help me please

 

^^ Happened to me awhile ago. I replaced all the hazards/turn signals fuses and all the turn signal bulbs and then everything was fine.

but for some weird reason my car doesnt flash the hazards when I lock, anybody know how to fix this?

 

i will try it see what happen. i test the flasher its both good.this making me mad

 

still not working i change bulb and flasher still not working.it blows my fuses out . i am waiting for hazard switch to come in. i hope is hazard swith.

 

Looks like you need a multi-function switch.

 

is the relay a plug in or is there wiring involved?

 

Relay replacement (as long as it's the same part) is a plug and play.

 

I just installed front 1157 and 1156 led turn signal bulbs, with a led flasher relay, i turn my dimmer switch down, and now when i use the turn signal, my lcd clock on dash, and a/c contol display lights flash. What am i doing worng or what i can fix?

 

check your bulbs, you might have mixed up the 1156 and 1157 bulbs.

 

Bulbs are where there suppose to be, havent checked the fuse, but the turn signals wouldnt work if it was a fuse, also to add, my rear turn signal led bulbs stay on, i have the 1157 led up front and the 1156 in the rear, and a new led flasher relay, and tips?
