Did you perform the Lighting System Diagnostic System Check?

Go to Step 2

Go to Diagnostic System Check - Lighting Systems

1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
2. Place the turn signal lever in the LEFT turn position.
3. Place the turn signal lever in the RIGHT turn position.

Do the appropriate turn signal lamps and/or indicators illuminate for each action?

Go to Step 3

Is only one turn signal lamp inoperative?

Go to Step 6

Go to Step 4

Is only one of the turn signal indicators inoperative?

Go to Step 5

Go to Step 7

1. Turn OFF the ignition.
2. Disconnect the instrument panel cluster (IPC). Refer to Instrument Cluster Replacement in Instrument Panel, Gauges, and Console.
3. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
4. Probe the inoperative turn signal supply voltage circuit of the IPC with a test lamp that is connected to a good ground.
5. Place the turn signal lever in the position of the inoperative indicator.

Does the test lamp illuminate and flash.

Go to Step 10

Go to Step 13

1. Disconnect the inoperative turn signal lamp.
2. Probe the turn signal supply voltage circuit of the inoperative lamp with a test lamp that is connected to a good ground.
3. Place the turn signal lever in the position of the inoperative lamp.

Does the test lamp illuminate and flash?

Go to Step 14

Go to Step 15

Do the hazard lamps operate properly?

Go to Step 8

Go to Hazard Lamps Inoperative in Symptoms

1. Disconnect the turn/hazard-headlamp switch.
2. Probe the turn signal flasher signal circuit with a test lamp that is connected to a good ground.

Does the test lamp illuminate and flash?

Go to Step 11

Go to Step 9

Test the turn signal flasher signal circuit for an open, high resistance, or short to ground. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 19
