    I got a Haywire harness for my Model A, got everything wired but no turn signals. Everything else works. Went over the instructions a dozen times all is wired right, so I took my tester and checked all connections, no juice coming out of the fuse block at the fuse with key on. Any suggestions or do you think this fuse block is bad? I've used these kits two other times with no problems.
     
  2. Make sure the fuse is good, if so then check to see if you have power at the fuse socket. Also check to see if you have continuity from the non-power side of the fuse socket to the switch. No power at the socket, probably a bad panel. No continuity, double-check your connections.

    Does the flasher can plug in to the fuse block? If so, have you figured out where the wires inside go to/from, and checked for voltage or continuity all along the way?

    Fuse is good, checked at the socket no power, nothing to switch. Checked everything.

    can you get to the back side of the fuse block? or is it sealed up?

    Flasher plugs into block, one for hazard flashers separate one for turn signals. Hazards work, switched flashers no difference.

    did you measure for power at both sides of the fuse location, and both sides of the flasher can connection?

    I would have to remove four screws to do that, I don't know if I want to do that. I will call on Mon. to talk with them. After doing all this work I hope I don't have to do it again.

    I think you will find it well worth your time and effort......by the way the last time I went through Blue Earth it was 1979......what a beautiful area it was.
