FRONT HAZARDS

[Chunky 611]

I own a 69 superbee and the front amber lights work when I use my directional signals but do not flash when I use the hazard switch. The rear lights are fine. Is this normal? Or do I have some electrical work to do? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

They should flash.. bury your head into the wiring diagram.

I fought a similar problem and was embarrassed that it had me stumped for so long. My root cause was the connections to the hazard switch itself. Took lots of deoxit to clean the switch and connector contacts but that fixed the issue.

I agree with Billccm. This is easy to trace if you do some process of elimination thinking. So lets think, your front markers work with the turn signals, so that proves the front lights and the wiring are good. You say the rear works when you use the hazards, so that tells us your hazard relay works somewhat. Check the hazard relay terminals for the front lights, maybe some corrosion and it is possible the contacts inside have corrosion, so use a simple test light and test the current to those terminals.
