The blinkers on my '98 F-150 are not working, but the hazards do. I checked the fuses and they all look good.

I was messing with the wheel tilt the other day, so I am figiting with the stalk (blinker lever) and tiltling the wheel to see if it is just a lose contact, but with all the wiggling I'm doing they still won't come on.

I am thinking that is the problem, but how can I fix it? How does the ignition switch come off so that I can take the plastic shroud around the wheel off and wiggle some more connections?

Any suggestions?

 

Hit the multifunction switch with a shot of brake clean through the opening for the hazard switch to see if your turn signals take to workin'.

A pin or two may be backed out at the connector to the multifunction switch as well.

 

dont use brake clean...dissolves plastic and such...go to radio shack and get electrical contact cleaner if you perform the operation ...zap!

 

I don't know what brake clean you're using that dissolves plastic. Discolor, maybe, dissolve?

 

i had some what of the same problem with my 88, in the back of the truck by the spare there was a wire harness that connected all the lights in the back. over time it got corroded and i had no running lights only one brake light and no turn signals.
