Turn signals

[KarlsDart]

Hi all, I hope I can tap some of the vast knowledge on here. I recently bought a 69 Dart and the car had a number of owners and a 53 year old wiring harness. I had no right rear brake, running lights or turn signals. I replaced the rear harness with one from Classic Industries, I then had rear running lights and flashers but no turn or brake light. I replaced the turn signal switch/harness and now I have running lights, flashers, and brake lights, but no turn signals. Does anyone know where I should start? Thanks!

Brake lights means the power is getting from the brake light switch, through the turn sig switch which routes that power, so that is a lot of "stuff" that is now good

Check for the flashers, there are two, one for hazard, one for turn. Both 2 prong. If you don't have one or a replacement handy, you can jumper a wire across the two flasher terminals and test if the lights light up "solid."

You can download factory service manuals for free from MyMopar.

There are two different flashers, one for turn signals, the other for the emergency flasher system. Check power to the turn signal flasher.

I guess I should have waited a minute or two!

Thanks for the replies, so I looked under the dash by the ash tray and a modular plug was hanging. I thought great, ran out got the flasher module plugged it in and my rear lights started flashing as well as my back lit auto meter gauges? There are three wires on that plug orange green in middle and blue. It flashed when I put it into orange and green, did nothing green and blue. I do have a color wiring diagram, coming off the directional signal switch connector it show two wires coming off the flasher one red one black? The emergency flasher shows red coming off the flasher switch and two pinks leaving? I can't even find this orange/green/blue combo?.... I hate wiring!

Turn signal flasher is to the right of ashtray, usually mounted in a clip(our 67 clip is anyway) flasher immediately after fuseblock is for hazards.

Thanks 4spdragtop, I think I'm looking at an old AC connector. Will check it out in the AM!

The 2 wire red/black connector is for the turn signal flasher. The red/double pink is the emergency flasher. I'm not sure about the orange/blue/green one. Orange is for a light in all the factory wiring I've seen, usually for illuminating something in the dash, console, or other interior lighting.

Still trying to find that second flasher near the ashtray
