: : I was just in the steering column today tyring, among other things, to remedy a malfunctioning left turn signal. The relay works fine on the right turn, but chatters on the left. I tested 2 wires: the green/yellow (13) and the red/blue (2) and was able to reproduce the chatter on wire 13. Wire 2 was dead. My question is this: where does wire 2 end? Am I correct in guessing that it needs replacement? All solder points and connections seemed to be snug and in working order. Who out there has fixed this before?? Any help would greatly be appreciated.

According to my 86 ETM, the blue/red wire goes to a solder connection, where it splits to:
terminal 2 on the Hazard switch
the left front turnsignal light
another solder connection, where it splits to:
left rear light
instrument cluster printed circuit (socket for indicator bulb)

power comes through the green/yellow wire from the flasher from the hazard switch, from fuse 24

Have you checked the two bulbs and their grounds? (Use the hazard switch)

Hope this helps,

Bill Riblett
