1992 Honda Accord EX - Turn Signal Problems

LennyValentine · 06-22-2009, 11:45 AM

Hi everyone,

I have a 1992 Honda Accord EX. My right rear turn signal light went out, so I replaced it. Now neither rear turn signal light is working, and I have no clue as to why. Any suggestions, information, or assistance would be welcomed.

Sincerely,

Lenny Valentine

Hi LennyValentine

Turn on your four-way flashers and see if all the lights turn on including your dash flashers. If the lights turn on then the bulbs and wiring are OK and the problem is somewhere else. Do the flasher lights on the dash remain on without blinking or are the dash flashers off completely? If the dash flasher lights remain on both ways with no blinking, then the flasher relay is at fault. If all lights are off completely (from front to back) then the fuses or flasher switch is at fault. To check the switch,find the harness on the steering column, use a test light to test the pins on the switch side and see if you get a signal return.
