Hi all,

Working out the bugs after my resto. Having issues with my rear tail lights not flashing while HAZARD button is pressed in on steering column (69 w/ RS package).

1. All rear and front lights function (brake, blinker, tail and headlights, side markers).
2. The relay controlling the HAZARDS was BAD. Replaced it, now only the front lamps flash while HAZARD is pressed in.
3. Bulbs appear to be fine.


Seems like possible ground issue, but if so, why would all other rear light functionality work?

I've scoured over the electrical schematics and it doesn't seem like the HAZARD switch would control front and rear separately...it appears to be configured for LH and RH.... (dark blue, light blue)

:confused:

Thoughts anyone?

Thanks!

Forgot to mention small block 4 speed car with console gauge package! Thanks!

I had a problem in that the hazard relay would "turn itself on" while the car was sitting.....this affected only the front left signal....not sure what it means other than the switch can somehow activate only one lamp.
