    Signal lights won't work

    I had a problem with my signal lights, they won't work... I suffered an small "short circuit" when trying to make the bumper lights act as signal lights and blown the hazard fuse, I replaced the hazard fuse, but I still don't have signal lights. What should I do?

      I did this same mod on the 87 325 - I had zero problems, has been working fine since day one.

      I'd say, get everything back to the way it was originally, and see if it works that way. Then start the mod from scratch again. May seem like twice the work, but to make sure everything works right still, it's always best to revert back to the way it was before.

      - Did you get the walkthru off bmwe30.net? Cause that's the one I followed. make sure you did everything as it said - I did it, it worked perfect. Also be sure to cover those wires up with electrical tape - make sure everything's covered. ;)

          check your fuses again. the signals run off a different fuse.

                  You said you undid then redid it again - did you try using the signal lights after reverting the lights back to the original state?

                  If you did, and they worked, then you did the mod again, are you making sure the correct wires are grounded?
