Reply to "Hazard switch wire description"

Michel,

I would suggest that you start by adding the jumper as I described above. This will allow you to check and troubleshoot all of your turn signal lights, turn signal switch, and flasher, as the hazard switch won't be in the circuit. That way, if there is a problem, you won't have to wonder if the hazard switch might have a problem. You can get everything else working, and then plug the hazard switch back into the system. Then, if something is not working correctly, it would most likely be the hazard switch or the wiring on the back of that switch.

If you don't want to leave the key on during testing/troubleshooting/repairing, place that jumper between the GREEN wire and the YELLOW wire. This will supply UNSWITCHED power to the turn signals. If you do move the jumper to the green wire, make sure to disconnect the battery or remove the jumper if you aren't done when quitting for the evening. It's just a precaution.

Verify first that the green wire is unswitched and the the red wire is switched. I've had one report that the reverse was the case, but I never did hear back from that guy. I don't know if he made a mistake with his voltmeter readings, or a PO changed something, or the "factory" made a change.
