Honda Flasher Units
Q. Hello, I have a 1992 Honda Accord sedan. The turn signals stopped working. Completely dead, no light, nothing. My first thought was the fuse. The fuse looked fine, but I changed it anyway. Actually, I changed several fuses, because the chart showing which fuse was which wasn't entirely accurate. I changed all of the 7.5 fuses. The turn signals still didn't work.
My next suspect was the flasher. I checked with Chilton's, which said the flasher is located behind a kick plate on the driver's side lower left. I did indeed find a flasher there. It is clearly the four-way emergency flashers because I can turn them on and feel and hear the flasher ticking.
Two auto parts stores have told me the flasher for the turn signal and the four-ways are the same part number.
I have searched and searched but cannot find another flasher. I began to wonder if both the turn signal circuit and the four-way flasher circuit use the same flasher. Most people I talk to think that's highly unlikely, but I tell you I cannot find another flasher under there. Any advice?
Thanks!
RichA. The turn signals and hazard flashers work of the same flasher unit. There isn't a separate flasher for each. So if you replaced the flasher and the hazard lights still do not work, then I would suspect you have a bad hazard switch.
