Turn Signals: Description and Operation

Circuit Description

Turn Signal Lamps
With the hazard switch in OFF, and ignition switch in ON or START, battery voltage is applied from fuse 1 to the flasher unit. The solid-state flasher unit senses the turn switch position through the coil control and alternately applies and removes battery voltage to the turn switch. Voltage is applied to the left turn or right turn lamps and indicators depending on the turn switch position.

Hazard Lamps
With the hazard switch depressed (ON), battery voltage is applied from fuse 7 to the flasher.The solid -state flasher unit senses that the hazard switch is in the ON position and alternately applies and removes battery voltage to the left turn and right turn lamps and both indicators in the instrument cluster.
