    Turn signal question - updated

    Okay guys, here is what I did/checked last night:

    Changed fuse
    Checked bulbs - okay (the light part works, signals don't)
    Checked wires under dash - all tight
    Checked connections at bulbs - all tight.

    Still, not driver side signals or hazards working. Relay maybe? Does anyone know where it is?

    Thanks

    Did you get out a multimeter? Check to see if they are actually getting power to the sockets? Did you check the stalk switch? loose wire?

    Did you consult your Bentley trouble shooting guide?

      I don't have a Bentley manual, just a Haynes.

      The driver's side gets no power w/ the switch.

      All the wires I checked were tight and in good condition. The switch seemed in good condition, and it makes the passenger side work properly.

      Any ideas?

        It's not getting power to the switch? or from the switch?

          No power to the lights at the front and rear of the car.

          I'm pretty sure the switch is good b/c the passenger side works fine.

            Swap a switch in from a buddy who has one. It only has two screws.

                      I'm gonna try the flasher first. If that's not it, I'll get a switch from one of you guys.

                      thanks and I'll let you know.

                          22 mm socket remove steering wheel then undo plastic around the seering column. Then undo the two screws that hold in place and the electric connection. Reverse the order.
