New Problem With four way switch

[asigetic]

OK I am resembling the bike finale and the 4 way flasher switch is acting up I have no turn signals or 4 ways and sometimes I will flicker it back and forth and they will work and so will my turn signals. Is that a sign that the switch is going or am I missing something else in the picture. By the way if any body has a switch for sale let me know. Thanks Al Or is there a way to by pass the switch to make the turn signals work.

Fairly certain you need this switch in place to get turn signals working. Unless you do some extensive mods to wiring.

 

Clean contacts good and also check connection into the 41R relay near headlight. Big unit, about 1" x 3" x 4 1/2 or so. This box contains the start circuit and the flasher/cancel circuits. Called Flasher Relay Assy on schematics. 9 wires going into it.

 

Also check fuses and see that they are all 4 are tight on both ends in the fuse box.

 

A hazard switch from an 84-93 will work. Not an 83, they are totally different.

 

Here is a link to schematics if that will help you.
