Message tell, that hazard switch let all 4 lamps flash. So no ground issue
at the lamps, nor the feed from the hazard unit. I still opt for a lose
connection between the stalk switch and the interconnection, where this
connection hooks up at the wire from the hazard switch.

 

Yes, the hazard flasher unit "feeds" the indicator flasher unit, but if the
hazard flasher is not feeding that line, both sides (left and right)
indicators will not work.

In the problem description left is working and right is not.

 

My 2 cents (or for Paul pence)

 

Cheers,

Hans '71 BGT

If it was a problem at the corners of the car including earth/ground there
then the hazard flashers wouldn't light that corner, it's unlikely both ends
one side would fail at the same time, and they would stop flashing as soon
as the first corner failed.

 

Whilst the turn flasher IS fed through the hazard flasher switch if there
were a problem there then likewise neither side would work.

 

Logic, gentlemen!

----- Original Message ----- 
I have a 1971 MGB.  The right side turn signals do not work.  Left side
works fine, and the 4 Way flashers work, as well (all 4).  I have replaced
the bulbs in the front and rear turn signals on the right side, and checked
to see that all of the fuses are OK, but still no turn signals on the right
side.  Any ideas?

 

I'm thinking maybe the flasher unit, but it seems like if the left side turn
signals work OK, then the flasher should be OK.  So, I'm stuck.
