[diesel_mercedes] Re: Signals and Hazards Don't Blink

 

I'm pretty sure I've got some bad grounds...or just one wreaking havoc all over ;)

All the bulbs are working. I am just putting it back the way I found it, which is no guarantee of "correct". I'll have to look into the flasher unit, just left it as is...merely unhooked the hazard switch, cleaned, re-installed as I found it. I'm still flying without a manual (and I'm an auto-newbie)...hoping to fix that at Christmas time :)

Thanks for the ideas...I'll keep digging!
