Test Q: Turn/Hazard Indicator Inoperative Or Always On
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
After making any repairs, clear DTCs and perform self-test.
- Turn ignition switch to RUN position. Operate both turn signals and hazard lights. If turn signals and hazard lights operate correctly, go to next step. If turn signals and hazard lights do not operate correctly, repair as necessary. For turn signal switch testing, see STEERING COLUMN SWITCHES - F150 article.
- Turn ignition switch to LOCK position. For right hand indicator, disconnect instrument cluster 20-pin harness connector C220a. Turn ignition switch to RUN position. Measure voltage between ground and instrument cluster 20-pin harness connector C220a terminal No. 7 (White/Light Blue wire) while multifunction switch is moved to right turn position. For left hand indicator, disconnect 22-pin harness connector C220b. Measure voltage between ground and instrument cluster 22-pin harness connector C220b terminal No. 4 (Light Green/White wire) while multifunction switch is moved to left turn position. See Figure and Figure . Voltage should fluctuate between zero voltage with turn signal off and battery voltage with turn signal on. If voltage is as specified, go to next step. If voltage is not as specified, repair open in White/Light Blue or Light Green/White wire between multifunction switch and instrument cluster.
- Disconnect all instrument cluster harness connectors. Inspect harness connectors for corrosion and pushed out pins. Connect all instrument cluster harness connectors, ensuring they are connected correctly. Operate system and verify if concern is still present. If concern is still present, replace instrument cluster. See INSTRUMENT CLUSTER under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. If concern is not present, system is operating correctly at this time. Clear DTCs and perform self-test.
