Blinker help

[alexo]

Baffled.
Replaced the blinker relay. Checked all bulbs and all good, hazards working. Grounds seem ok.
Turn the headlamps on and blinker doesn't blink just stays lit.
Then I turn lights off (daytime) use blinker and all lights except headlamps blink.
Could this be a ground issue.
If so can someone list the grounds to check. I checked both front fenders and trunk ground.
WT?
Please help.

There are 4 grds in the eng. bay area.
g-102-on front fender, behind left hand front lights.
g-103on rt hand front fender, behind headlights
g-104 behind I/P, to left of steering column
g-120 eng. grd
g-177 left rear trunk
If you removed any bulbs, you didn't accidently swap the single element bulbs w/the dual element type? You purchased the correct flasher relay?
The turn/flasher is powered only, when the ign. sw is in "run" and goes directly to the "turn hazard sw assy., along w/the hazard flasher.
Hope this helps.

The service manual states, " If one of the turn indicators goes on when the Park Lights are turned on, check the Front Turn Light on that side. "

That's where I would start.

Turned out to be one of bulbs was single filament instead of dual.
Body shop folks. Geez.
At least it was an easy fix.
Thx guys

I woulda thought you were low on blinker fluid. Available on line. The dealer doesn't carry it for turbo cars anymore.

Right next to the flux capacitors.
