Turn Signals & Hazard Flashers: Description

Turn signal and hazard flasher circuits are integral systems using a common switch assembly mounted within upper steering column housing. Signal lever is on left side of column and hazard switch knob is on right side.

Two different flasher units are used. The hazard flasher is a variable load type and will operate regardless of the number of lights burned out. If one signal light is burned out, signal circuit will not function on same side due to insufficient current draw to operate flasher. For wiring diagrams of individual models, refer to chassis wiring diagrams in WIRING DIAGRAM Section.
