The hazard switch in my 1971 BGT has been causing this issue from time to t=
ime.
Flipping this hazard switch several times helped to cure this till now.
Cheers,
Hans

Onderwerp: Re: [Mgs] No Turn Signals
I very much appreciate the help from the list with my turn signal problem. =
This is to let you know, I think I know what the problem is. After lookin=
g at the wiring diagram in Rick Astley's book (MGB Electrical Systems) I no=
ticed the turn signals are wired through the hazard switch. Just before th=
e turn signals quit I was showing a friend the dash. I was showing him wha=
t switches worked and which didn't. One of the switches that has never wo=
rked was the hazard switch. I clicked it back and forth to show him. Righ=
t after that the turn signals quit. Until I looked at the wiring diagram I=
did not put it together. I just went out to the car to see if I rocked th=
e switch back and forth maybe the turn signals would start working. Instea=
d the switch broke internally and refused to move. It lasted 52 years. N=
o complaints. I have ordered a new switch from Moss. We'll see if that fi=
xes it. I might even get hazard flashers out of it too.

I would start at the basics, cleaning bulb contacts and ensuring th=
at power is getting to each filament. Check that the earth wires, if pres=

Then review the connections of wires to the fuses, and test each fu=

with ohmmeter yet have insufficient current to light the lights.
