rosso Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 All bulbs work. Brake/rear lights work, 4-way flasher does not work at all. Any suggestions on where to look for a problem? Also, I am missing the bulbs for the factory tach, I tried looking for them on the interweb but don't know the correct size. Thanks. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 Swap the turn signal with the 4 way flasher unit. They should be under dash close to the steering column. Does the 4 way now work? Do the turn signals work now? Quote Link to comment
banzai510(hainz) Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 (edited) Icehouse on here knows the wagon wiring pretty good PM him, he told me the wagons have a added C clip splice to the harness by the fuse box I think that corrodes. Ask Icehouse he will know Edited November 1, 2023 by banzai510(hainz) Quote Link to comment
yenpit Posted November 5, 2023 Report Share Posted November 5, 2023 AutoZone Novita brand heavy duty electronic flasher units (same turnsignal & hazard) part #EL12. Period. Done....................unless you have a more serious issue lurking about!! Quote Link to comment
rosso Posted November 6, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 Thanks TJ, I will buy two flashers at autozone tomorrow and install. Are the stock flashers under the dashboard? and do you have a picture of what they look like? There appears to be more than two iirc. Once I get everything working properly I want to replace the front turn signal bulbs with LED so the EL12 will be perfect. Quote Link to comment
KELMO Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 (edited) Passenger side of the steering column and pedal bracket. Drivers side of the steering columnand pedal bracket. My dash is out so these were easy to get to. You will most likely have to go at this from underneath. Drivers side from a little farther back. Edited November 6, 2023 by KELMO 1 Quote Link to comment

If your going with LEDs eventually i would grab an adjustable flasher unit..... I have no idea if that el12 flasher is load dependent or not or if the leds will effect the flash rate.... I think I was running the el12 before I added leds but I could be wrong.... 1 Quote Link to comment

I would suggest simply replacing both at same time............they are cheap & have helped us out on MANY classic cars! Quote Link to comment
rosso Posted November 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2023 Hi All, Got the two Novita EL12 relays installed and the turn signals now work much better - faster and brighter. Thanks for all the help. New (rebuilt) turn signal installed also so it doesn't flop around so much and looks great. Thanks to Daniel for fast service. 4-way hazard flasher still not working so need help figuring out what to check next. Thanks everyone for the help. If you have not seen my post of the car at Pacific Raceways for a lapping day - it was a blast and the car ran great with no issues. Here's a link to the youtube video. Quote Link to comment

I will have a Wagon (not Sedan) hazard switch..................PM or text if interested! Have you taken your hazard switch apart to check it? They get gummed up, dirty & lose contact.
