turn signals 67 f100

[Junior Knight]

cking out the turn sigs...running lites..ck left sig..nope..all new bulbs all the signals in rear work..problem is in front...

[fordman]

bad socket or bad ground

[Junior Knight]

this is why they call u *fordman*

[fordman]

if it isnt a bad socket or ground it could be a bad wire or a bad tss even. i would start to see if power is getting to the light first. and then work backwards to the tss.

[Junior Knight]

running lites works...but it won't blink

[Junior Knight]

tss?

[fordman]

turn signal switch. those bulbs are dual element bulbs and if one of the elments is burned out it wont work. if one of the contacts isnt contactign it wont work either. only the good side will work in those situations.

[Junior Knight]

ok..just cked out lite sockets with a tester..ok. running lites all work but left front and right rear won't blink...bulbs are new...will ck out wires

Do your emergency flashers work? I'm just trying to narrow it down.

[fordman]

inside of the sockets are those contacts. if they are worn down enough they wont properly contact the bulb. however if the brake light works in the one that doesnt blink then there is something wrong probably in the tss.

[Junior Knight]

If the sockets are bad..where can I get new ones? I don't think that any of the parts books have new ones.

[fordman]

i have never looked to see if they sell new ones or not. they might. but the parts wanted section or the shipping rip off place is available too.

[Junior Knight]

ok..I just took a complete taillite from another ford truck that I know works and it did the same thing ...runnin lites work..blinker dosen't..so would it be in the wireing itself?

[Junior Knight]

well fordman..I think u were right bout the tss..traced all the wires..all good, then I called my local Ford repair guy for over 30 yrs, he said the same thing, so ur tha man!!

[Junior Knight]

just ordered a tss..lets get this f100 on the road!!
