Among many things wrong with my Z, I am having turn signal AND hazzrd light issues. The problem:
No turn signals indicate in the dash or flash and neither do my hazzards when switched on.

What I've done thusfar:
Replaced multifunction switch and the 3 pronged flasher under the dash.
Now there seems to be some controversy over the adjacent holder for another unit. Was there, in fact, a 2 prong flasher? If there was 2, could missing one cause this symptom?

Help a brother out!

Nismo,
Is there some connectivety between the two or are they 2 different problems?

If you look at the schematic from XenonS130 in the FSM you'll see how the circuit goes through the hazard light switch. It's a common cause for a lot of blinking grief :0

Thanks Fric....I gotta tell you, I hate working with schematics. I know...I know....if I don't learn them I'm gonna be fighting an uphill battle with troubleshooting! Can I get a second on that?? LOL

Ok...gonna go check out my hazzard switch. I have 2 to work with. I hope both aren't bad!

Hmmmm......well, I've swapped out the hazzard switch with another.(I have 2) and the turn signal combo switch. Much to my dismay, the signals are still not coming on or flashing. Where should I be going next? I don't know. I've had experiences with some cars not flashing a turn signal cause a bulb burned out and broke the circuit but at least the light would light up!

Any thoughts???

Get a multi meter and find out where you are getting voltage in the circuit.
