I watched and looked up a bunch of things trying to get my flashers working. With watching yours I started quick pushing my hazard button and bam, they worked. Ended up the hazard button was stuck. Can't thank you enough.
Thank you so much for this video David, I fixed my truck lights in 5 minutes thanks to your video, I didn’t know that specific relay is blue, someone had a regular grey relay in it, that is why it wasn’t working 👍🙏
Put the cover back on, the relay can vibrate loose if you don’t, especially if you have a Diesel engine. They need three relays, right side , left side , and hazards. That’s the way they are in road tractors and dump trucks.
Interesting that the hazards and blinkers use the same relay because my Volkswagen Golf uses one relay for both the hazards and blinkers also. The Volkswagen one was much easier to change out.
I replaced the turn signal/multi-function switch, figuring the switch contacts had worn. I didn't notice that my hazard lights were working intermittently like my turn signals until after I had replaced the turn signal switch, and then proceeded to test all my functions. Since mine works intermittently, I'm wondering if the flasher unit relay is loose and making intermittent contact? I've decided to just buy a new flasher unit relay and make sure it's secure. Maybe I'll carry the old one for a back-up with my spare fuses if it is still good!?
I have no power going into the flasher (1995 e350 RV) I am trying to sell this damn thing and now the flashers dont work... of course it couldnt just be a bulb or the flasher unit. I am being told I need to trace the wires back and there is likely a problem with the ground or wiring... I dont see how I will be able to accomplish this. Not sure if replacing the switch is worth doing at this point, but I sure could use some advice.. thanks.
Play with the switch Push it in slow some will start working just before the click If it starts working it’s the switch If you have no power still to the flasher. Then it’s not a ground Ck the fuse if blown u have ether a short to ground. If it takes a while to blow u have high resistance. Sometimes I can just throw leds replacements and that will help
So when I turn my hazards on only the green arrow indicating the right side shows up. Neither of my blinkers are working either. Would it be the same issue? I hear the clicking when using my hazards.
I didn't find what you was talking about. Mine is a 97 f250 HD 7.3. But while I was looking for it I found another flashing relay that connects to the back of the fuse panel. Swapped it out and everything works. Iv never seen fuse panels with fuses on both sides. Hope this helps someone.
thx, This is what the problem was. Still works i unplugged it plugged it back in worked good for a little while Doordashing went out one point and came right back on. Thinks its the connection. going to spray wd40 in it later
change the relay they are cheap at autozone you can get 4 there for ONE Ford OE and they are the same. If that don't work then you have to get into the steering column and take out the cluster switch and replace it. Make sure the fuse is good as well (check it first) then flasher then cluster switch. Cheap to expensive. Easy to harder
Quick question when you press the hazard button it's just 2 setting correct..1push for hazards on and 1 push for hazards off. (Have an issue where it is 4 settings with 1 of the settings being no turn signals 10 e350 bus)
I have a 2004 F350 and when I use my right or left turn signals my tail lights flash as if I have my hazard lights on could this be because of a bad relay shown in this video?
That sounds more like a ground wire in the back of truck Check and clean the tail light grounds Electric finds ground even if it’s going through another bulb to get to it. Or it’s possible the wires are crossed. If there was work done on truck I would check to see if something was done to cause this.

It does operate that as well but it is on a different circuit The blinkers and hazard is tied in together Brakes not as much but on some years it’s possible Ck for voltage at the brake light switch. If you have voltage I would say test the switch for continuity when the switch is pressed in. If the switch is fine and you have voltage Check the ground to make sure it’s ok Or run a new ground press the brake pedal see if lights work
Hey hoping you can help I have a 2004 Cadillac deville I purchased it like this no hazards ,blinkers or dash indicators I am hearing clicking every time I use blinkers or hazards but nothing happens what do you think ?

You may have a BCM issue which you can fix for $9 with a scanner and a free app. See my other comment here on this video comment thread for full explanation
If they stay solid and dont blink but inside your signal is blinking fast its probably your BCM. Scan it and clear the code yourself with a cheap scanner. Easy cheap fix
So... my hazards went out the other day and I noticed that the blinkers also went at the same time. Now I’ve realized that my brake lights are out also. I’m guessing they all went out together. I checked the fuse and it’s fine. After looking at this video I’m guessing this is my next step. Do you agree? And just as a side note... who puts brake lights and blinkers and hazards all on the same unit? Seems like a safety hazard to me 🤷♀️
Yes try this for fist If this fixes only the blinkers then try the brake switch which is on the brake pedal I have a video on that as well. If it fixes everything then you’re all set. And yes Ford does some strange things that is unsafe in my opinion Everything should be separated especially the hazards
If you have over 100k more then likely it’s the blinker switch on the column. Also the hazard switch usually where is Al and you need to wiggle the switch for the hazards sometimes it will get everything to work again, but if it does replace the hazard switch.
Also make sure you check the common things like fuses and grounds just in case a wire got pinched by the frame or something like that and popped the fuse.
I have that problem. Nothing happens when flashers on, except my brake lights don't work. Turn flasher off, brake lights work. No blinker lights or noise. Weird.
I would think this blinker hazard unit is bad as long as you made sure there are no wires cut or crossed www.1aauto.com/ford-turn-signal-combination-lever-trq-swa41775/i/1azcc00017
SOLVED! I've read many threads just like this and you guys mostly have my exact problem. Here's what the problem was and how I fixed it: First, in my 2012 Ford F150 the right blinker (flasher)/ brake light would not work. Turn signal blinked fast inside and for the front light and the mirror signal but tail light blinker would not flash. The bulbs were fine, I even replaced with new just to double down. The tail lights would light up when my headlights were on (running lights) but would not get brighter when brake depressed and would not flash for turn signal. I will tell some of you to keep in mind that yours may light up also so you don't think you have a bulb out but keep in mind there are two sepperate tungstan filaments (squiggly light wires) in each tail light and the brakes and flasher one could be bad and your running tail lights still work so definately change your bulbs FIRST, then do this if that was not it. So I had the problem for many months and refused to take my truck to the dealer where of course they will want to replace things and rewire and god knows what else and I've read where one guy says Ford charged him like $800 to fix this. I fixed this problem with $9.00. Saw a CZcams video with a guy with the same problem and he bought an ELM Interface scanner, plugged into the vehicle under the steering wheel and scanned his own truck with an Android app. So I bought the same one on Amazon (here is the link) www.amazon.com/gp/product/B081WYWZ6B/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I found a free app called Car Scanner ELM OBD2 by OvZ it's a generic looking logo of a blue square with a white engine. But I actually saw tons of these apps and I'm sure other apps would work fine as long as they're ELM OBD2 scanning apps with high ratings. I scanned my truck hoping to see some code come up about the BCM (body control module which is where the problem is) but did not see that code. Didnt matter. I CLEARED what unuseful codes I did see and that immediately fixed the problem and my damn flasher and brake lights are all working again. THANK GOD FOR THIS. Super cheap and easy. I'll never go to a dealership. Hope this helps y'all.
i was diagnosing my dads truck signals last night. they werent going, and neither were 2 of the 3 brake lights. weird right? the one on the back of the roof was still ok. meanwhile that freaky buzzy noise you demonstrate was happening cause i left the 4-ways "on" while i was upside down in the footwell. pressed n massaged the 4-way button and for some reason signals n brakes came back. im making him replace this blasted fuse tomorrow. 😎
@@DavidsHowtosReviews like my hazards and turn signal lights will be working on the outside of the vehicle, but I don’t see them working on the inside on the dash. Could it be the thermal flasher right?
That sounds like you have something going on with the wire leading to dash or the lights inside the dash for the indicators are burnt out Ck for voltage at input for the dash
I watched and looked up a bunch of things trying to get my flashers working. With watching yours I started quick pushing my hazard button and bam, they worked. Ended up the hazard button was stuck. Can't thank you enough.
This is a good video, quick and succinct, really appreciate how streamline it was

Play with the switch
Push it in slow some will start working just before the click
If it starts working it’s the switch
If you have no power still to the flasher.
Then it’s not a ground
Ck the fuse if blown u have ether a short to ground.

If there is no voltage at fuse then there is a problem with ether the fuse block, follow the voltage.
Ok so my hazards still work but it’s just my blinkers that don’t any thoughts

How much would this fix cost at a shop?
Hard to say
Depends on what is really wrong.
The part / parts and the time.
Few hundred to a few thousand
Get a estimate so u are not blind sided
I have hazards but the turn signals just quit :( any ideas?
That really sounds like the signal lever needs to be replaced
This is the part just make sure to check your application

Did u have brake lights?
Yes
The brake lights are something different
Ck this video out

What if the indicators come on but they stay solid and don’t blink?

Your flashing relay needs to be replaced
That is another thing that happens when the flasher relay goes bad
You may have a BCM issue which you can fix for $9 with a scanner and a free app. See my other comment here on this video comment thread for full explanation
If they stay solid and dont blink but inside your signal is blinking fast its probably your BCM. Scan it and clear the code yourself with a cheap scanner. Easy cheap fix
Could be bad ground I had that problem as well and that's what it was
Neither of my turn signals work, and when i use my hazards only the left side comes on
That sounds like the turn signal lever and assembly needs to be replaced
So... my hazards went out the other day and I noticed that the blinkers also went at the same time. Now I’ve realized that my brake lights are out also. I’m guessing they all went out together. I checked the fuse and it’s fine. After looking at this video I’m guessing this is my next step. Do you agree?
And just as a side note... who puts brake lights and blinkers and hazards all on the same unit? Seems like a safety hazard to me 🤷♀️
Yes try this for fist
If this fixes only the blinkers then try the brake switch which is on the brake pedal I have a video on that as well.
If it fixes everything then you’re all set.
And yes Ford does some strange things that is unsafe in my opinion
Everything should be separated especially the hazards
@@DavidsHowtosReviews thanks! 😊
I have the same issue
Is this diferente from the flasher light round fuse? I don’t have signals or break light.mine is a 95. What year does this apply to?
I have the same issue. 2004 F150 Heritage 4.2L 5-speed
On my 2000 F150 it's on the left side not right of steering wheel
Glade you found it.
Off and running again
I wiggled the relay box and hazards work but blinkers don't
If you have over 100k more then likely it’s the blinker switch on the column.
Also the hazard switch usually where is Al and you need to wiggle the switch for the hazards sometimes it will get everything to work again, but if it does replace the hazard switch.
Also make sure you check the common things like fuses and grounds just in case a wire got pinched by the frame or something like that and popped the fuse.
What if I don’t hear the click, I press it down nothing happens
I have that problem. Nothing happens when flashers on, except my brake lights don't work. Turn flasher off, brake lights work. No blinker lights or noise. Weird.
Definitely check the ground wires
Sounds like the electric trying to find ground through other wires
So my hazards nor blinkers work they stopped all a sudden
You probably need to change out the hazard/blinker/high beam unit on the steering column
@@DavidsHowtosReviews going to go over everything tomorrow just had to replace the light control module few months back
Yeah that's about the last thing it could be I might just take it and have it done
Nah it’s very easy
Two screws and two plugs
I have been meaning to get a video up on how to change out the unit
That didn’t work
Any idea what I could do now?
Depending on how many miles
The blinker lever assembly
Replaces the blinker lever and the hazard button
This work to for 150 2003
I have the same problem

One good thing about Ford they keep everything the same 😊

A question that year and model is the car you show in the video
Moises Tejada F350 2003’ super duty 7.3L power stroke
My hazards work, but my directionals don't. I replaced the relay..
Check for voltage coming out of the column blinker shifter, it may need to be replaced
My left blinker wasnt working all i did was move steering wheel up
I tried this and it didn't work. Need to do more diagnostics before I go out and spend money.
Always best to troubleshoot as u go so you don’t waste money
Came to this video cuz my blinkers only work when the hazard button is pressed down but the hazards don’t work
I would think this blinker hazard unit is bad as long as you made sure there are no wires cut or crossed

My hazards work but turn directionals don't.
Check the directional switch it may need to be changed
@@DavidsHowtosReviews It was the flasher relay.
SOLVED! I've read many threads just like this and you guys mostly have my exact problem. Here's what the problem was and how I fixed it:
First, in my 2012 Ford F150 the right blinker (flasher)/ brake light would not work. Turn signal blinked fast inside and for the front light and the mirror signal but tail light blinker would not flash. The bulbs were fine, I even replaced with new just to double down. The tail lights would light up when my headlights were on (running lights) but would not get brighter when brake depressed and would not flash for turn signal.
I will tell some of you to keep in mind that yours may light up also so you don't think you have a bulb out but keep in mind there are two sepperate tungstan filaments (squiggly light wires) in each tail light and the brakes and flasher one could be bad and your running tail lights still work so definately change your bulbs FIRST, then do this if that was not it.
So I had the problem for many months and refused to take my truck to the dealer where of course they will want to replace things and rewire and god knows what else and I've read where one guy says Ford charged him like $800 to fix this. I fixed this problem with $9.00. Saw a CZcams video with a guy with the same problem and he bought an ELM Interface scanner, plugged into the vehicle under the steering wheel and scanned his own truck with an Android app. So I bought the same one on Amazon (here is the link)
www.amazon.com/gp/product/B081WYWZ6B/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I found a free app called Car Scanner ELM OBD2 by OvZ it's a generic looking logo of a blue square with a white engine. But I actually saw tons of these apps and I'm sure other apps would work fine as long as they're ELM OBD2 scanning apps with high ratings.
I scanned my truck hoping to see some code come up about the BCM (body control module which is where the problem is) but did not see that code. Didnt matter. I CLEARED what unuseful codes I did see and that immediately fixed the problem and my damn flasher and brake lights are all working again. THANK GOD FOR THIS. Super cheap and easy. I'll never go to a dealership. Hope this helps y'all.
i was diagnosing my dads truck signals last night. they werent going, and neither were 2 of the 3 brake lights. weird right? the one on the back of the roof was still ok. meanwhile that freaky buzzy noise you demonstrate was happening cause i left the 4-ways "on" while i was upside down in the footwell. pressed n massaged the 4-way button and for some reason signals n brakes came back. im making him replace this blasted fuse tomorrow. 😎
Sorry for late response
I hope things went well with the fix
Electrical problems can be a little tricky
It's not a relay, it's a flasher like on Christmas tree lights. .
That’s big thermal flasher? Under dash panel fuse.
Get the oem
They are more electric now but yes same thing
@@DavidsHowtosReviews like my hazards and turn signal lights will be working on the outside of the vehicle, but I don’t see them working on the inside on the dash. Could it be the thermal flasher right?
That sounds like you have something going on with the wire leading to dash or the lights inside the dash for the indicators are burnt out
Ck for voltage at input for the dash
