bad bulb maybe

Check the flasher not the one in the fuse block the one that is somewhere around the radio. Also check ground on the lights on the front, the thin wire boled to the core support and the one at the tail lights. On my 82 Capri the left does not pull enough current to flash the lights although all the bulbs are good and the flasher is good. I ended up getting a electronic flasher to replace the thermal one.

I have come across this problem twice and both times it was the wiring behind going into the hazard switch was loose or mixed up somehow.

check the wiring and check the flasher that is under the dash ( or near the radio..depending on what year). when mine went out it was the flasher under the dash

Check wiring to the hazzard switch and to the multi-function switch. The hard shell connector on the multi-function switch is known to become brittle over time, causing the retaining pins to break off, allowing the wires to wiggle out of the connector and away from the switch. Check the wires going into the connector on the back of the multi-function switch and see if any easily pull out. If so, go to your local Ford dealer and tell them you want a "multi-function switch hard shell connector". Un-pin each wire ONE AT A TIME, and pin them into the new connector.

I have this same exact problem down to the right blinker turning on when the hazzard switch is on, Ive replaced both flashers, the Multi Function Switch and still nothing. If you find a fix you got to let me know.

I'm going to try the switch for the turn signal and wipers hope fully its that . i going to have a friend lend me his because its $100 new

did u try the flasher? thats what mine was and it was $10 at autozone. get on your pass side floor board and look for a blue cylinder back by the radio

thats where my turn flasher was (on a 91GT), behind the radio. little blue plastic can, press fit into a bracket. you can kind of see it by gettin your head up behind there from the passenger side.

+1, the wires tend to back out of the connectors on the hazard switch. I spent $100 on a new turn signal switch only to find the connectors had backed out of the hazard switch.

just say you need a turn signal flasher for whatever year mustang. they'll have it in stock, pretty universal part. less than $5

+1 on the hazard switch. This happened to me two weeks ago and I wiggled the hazard switch wires around and the blinkers work fine again. Good luck!

coupecop · Mar 25, 2008

i have already changed the hazard switch and all the flashers are new . there is power in the flashers I'm thinking its the switch for the wipers and turn signals in the steering column .

coupecop · Mar 27, 2008

i just changed the switch for the wipers and turn signals in the steering column .
and nothing its still the same don't know what else to do . i don't think its the cluster because every thing works on it changed it about 2 weeks a go and every thing works fine except the turn signal do you all thinks there is some thing not connected right because the hazard lights work .

mustanggirrl · Mar 27, 2008

i had this problem recently... i changed the flasher & it did nothing i had to change the one behind the radio (and mine was blown && it looked blue)... its in a weird spot i had to go thru the glove box & it did the trick, did you try that?

blubullett · Sep 5, 2008

If you never found a fix for this mine was doing the same thing and it was the ignition switch. If you take the plastic peices off the stearing colum you will see a plug with tons of wires that plugs onto the stearing colum. If i wiggled mine the blinkers would start working. Replaced the thing it plugs into (guess its the ignition switch) it and now its fine.
