Pinpoint Test H: The Turn Signal Lamps Are Inoperative

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Ford RV Cutaway, 2005 Ford Econoline, 2005 Ford E450 Super Duty, and 2005 Ford Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. H1 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE TO THE ELECTRONIC FLASHER 
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Disconnect: Electronic Flasher C2141.
    • Key in ON position.
    • Place the multifunction switch to the LH or RH turn position.
    • Measure the voltage between the electronic flasher C2141 pin 3, circuit 385 (WH/RD), harness side and ground.

    • Is the voltage greater than 10 volts? 
    • Yes  : GO to H2.
    • No  : GO to  H5.
  2. H2 CHECK CIRCUIT 57 (BK) FOR AN OPEN 
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Measure the resistance between the electronic flasher C2141 pin 2, circuit 57 (BK), harness side and ground.

    • Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? 
    • Yes  : GO to H3.
    • No  : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
  3. H3 CHECK THE ELECTRONIC FLASHER 
    • Connect a fused (10A) jumper wire between the electronic flasher C2141 pin 3, circuit 385 (WH/RD), harness side and the electronic flasher C2141 pin 1, circuit 44 (LB), harness side.

    • Key in ON position.
    • Place the multifunction switch in the LH or RH position.
    • Are the LH or RH turn lamps illuminated? 
    • Yes  : INSTALL a new electronic flasher. TEST the system for normal operation.
    • No  : REMOVE the jumper wire. GO to H4.
  4. H4 CHECK THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH 
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Disconnect: Multifunction Switch C202a.
    • Carry out the multifunction switch component test. Refer to COMPONENT TESTING for component testing.
    • Is the multifunction switch OK? 
    • Yes  : REPAIR circuit 44 (LB). TEST the system for normal operation.
    • No  : INSTALL a new multifunction switch. REFER to STEERING COLUMN SWITCHES . TEST the system for normal operation.
  5. H5 CHECK THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH (NO VOLTAGE) 
    • Key in OFF position.
    • Disconnect: Multifunction Switch C202a.
    • Carry out the multifunction switch component test. Refer to COMPONENT TESTING for component testing.
    • Is the multifunction switch OK? 
    • Yes  : GO to H6.
    • No  : INSTALL a new multifunction switch. REFER to STEERING COLUMN SWITCHES . TEST the system for normal operation.
  6. H6 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE TO THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH 
    • Key in ON position.
    • Measure the voltage between the multifunction switch C202b pin IGN, circuit 8 (OG/YE), and ground.
