I have eliminated the fender mounted turn signal indicators. Does anyone know how to get turn signals to work without the indicators?? They light up but will not flash.

You need to ground the wires .

Was that the only change you made? From the schematics, and my 74RR, they are self-grounding and dont have a ground wire. It simply appears to unplug from a rubber covered "barrel" connector. Until we get this sorted-out, you are welcome to box-up the old indicators and mail them to me!

Mine were unhooked when I got my Satellite and every thing still worked fine.

yes that is the only thing I changed. If I ground the wires the flasher works really fast, if I toggle the ground they flash manually.

I got it fixed last night.........the brand new flasher I had bought was bad!! No need to ground the turn signal indicator wires. Thanks for all your help.

So simply removing the indicators and doing nothing with the wires was fine? I plan on doing this with my Charger. I was worried about issues if I got rid of them.

Correct, just unplug them and you should be fine.

Correct, just unplug them and you should be fine.
Then mail them to me!:grin: "Correct" doesn't matter to me, I just like them!
