Pinpoint Test L: The Turn Signal Lamps Are Inoperative
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Lincoln Mark LT and 2007 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
- L1 CHECK THE VOLTAGE TO THE INDICATOR FLASHER RELAY
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: Indicator Flasher Relay C2047
- Key in ON position.
- Measure the voltage between the indicator flasher relay C2047-2, circuit 296 (WH/VT), harness side and ground.
- Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?
- L2 CHECK CIRCUIT 296 (WH/VT) FOR AN OPEN
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: CJB C270e
- Key in ON position.
- Measure the voltage between the CJB C270e pin 23, circuit 296 (WH/VT), component side and ground.
- Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?
- YES : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
- NO : REPAIR or INSTALL a new CJB. TEST the system for normal operation.
- L3 CHECK CIRCUIT 57 (BK) FOR AN OPEN
- Key in OFF position.
- Measure the resistance between the indicator flasher relay C2047-5, circuit 57 (BK) harness side and ground.
- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?
- YES : Go to L4.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
- L4 CHECK CIRCUIT 44 (LB) FOR AN OPEN OR SHORT TO GROUND
- Key in OFF position.
- Disconnect: Multifunction Switch C202c
- Measure the resistance between the multifunction switch C202c-4, circuit 44 (LB), harness side and the indicator flasher relay C2047-1, circuit 44 (LB), harness side; and between the multifunction switch C202c-4, circuit 44 (LB), harness side and ground.
- Is the resistance less than 5 ohms between the multifunction switch and the indicator flasher relay; and greater than 10,000 ohms between the multifunction switch and ground?
- YES : Go to L5.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit. TEST the system for normal operation.
- L5 CHECK THE MULTIFUNCTION SWITCH
- Carry out the multifunction switch component test. Refer to COMPONENT TESTING.
- Is the multifunction switch OK?
- YES : INSTALL a new indicator flasher relay. TEST the system for normal operation.
- NO : INSTALL a new multifunction switch. REFER to STEERING COLUMN SWITCHES article. TEST the system for normal operation.
