(1) Disconnect battery ground cable..
(2) Remove turn signal lever by pulling it straight

out of the switch (Fig. 9).

(3) Remove two screws from the bottom of the

switch pod that hold turn signal switch.

which are controlled by the pod mounted switch.

TURN SIGNAL AND HAZARD WARNING FLASHER
LOCATION

AA, AC, AP AND AY BODIES

The turn signal flasher and the hazard warning

flasher are two separate plug-in type units.

On AC and AY both flashers are on the relay mod-

ule (Fig. 10).

On AA and AP Bodies the hazard flasher is located

on the relay module (Fig. 11). The turn signal flasher
is on the driver’s side of A/C duct for AA Body (Fig.
12) and center A/C duct for AP Body.

AG AND AJ BODIES

The turn signal flasher and the hazard warning

flasher are combined into one unit called a combina-
tion flasher (combo-flasher). The combo-flasher con-
trols the flashing of the hazard warning system and

the turn signal system. An inoperative bulb or in-
complete turn signal circuit will result in an increase
in flasher speed.

The combo-flasher is located under the instrument

panel, right of the steering column and is clipped on
the A/C distribution duct. The combo-flasher is yel-
low in color for ease of identification.

TURN SIGNAL RELAYS—AG AND AJ BODIES

The AG and AJ models are equipped with four

turn signal relays.

One relay controls the right rear turn signal and

stop lamp. The second relay controls the left rear
turn signal and stop lamp. The third relay controls
the right front turn signal. The fourth relay controls
the left front turn signal.

The turn signal relays are located in the relay

bank, underneath the driver’s side of the instrument
panel. The four turn signal relays are identical and
can be interchanged.

The turn signal relays do not cycle on and off with

the turn signal lamp. Their function is to complete

the turn signal circuit when the turn signal is
switched on. Turn signal cycling is done by the com-
bination flasher.

To test the relay, remove the suspect relay and

switch it with 1 of the other 3 turn signal relays. If
the problem follows the relay, replace that relay. If
the problem remains in the same circuit, the relay is
not the problem. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Dia-
grams.
