Hi mate; just quickly, sometimes you wont get an instant answer around here, the electrical forums don't get as much traffic.

 

Anyway: Flashers need a certain amount of current to trigger , if you are having issues it might be worth checking with an ammeter. Although usually if the current is low they come on but don't flash.

 

Also, stupid question, are they brand new flashers for that particular car?

 

As for your dash lights, you have probably blown the fuse for them.

You'll find that aftermarket flashers for some reason don't work on a KE36 as they run a Nippn Denso flasher relay.

 

So your best bet is to open it up and check for dry solder joints like I had to.

I'd like to help but I can't understand what you are doing. Its very difficult with English Second Language students and the general lack of grammar these days. Perhaps a wiring diagram would help.

ok, basicaly there is power going to the relay.

when i touch the wires together the lights will come on but not flash as no flasher relay is being used.

this would be why even with the new relays it does not work as they are all nipon denso ones.

so basicaly pull the cover off and see where the solder has broken and resolder it??

It wont be broken as such, it will just look like tree sap I guess around a silver joint.

 

Heat up the soldering iron and heat up those joints.

 

Also check the relay contacts internally while you have the big metal cover off. :)

 

Let me know how you get on.

sounds like the flasher can is FUBAR.

 

no lights means flasher/fuse

lights mean fuse is working but flasher isnt operating

 

also wtf "aftermarket flashers wont work" please explain?

 

I'm pretty sure mines got a hella one in it, all i did was get 3 male and 3 female terminals. made them so i can plug it in the orginal relay pins and retrofit a hella relay. easyyyyy!

 

want a part number?

KE36 is Jap delivered Evan, meaning that the load rating is odd.

 

I've had the same issue with one of my panel vans in the past and it was either $110 to fix it via a 3 week wait for a new relay out of Japan or attempt to fix the dry joint.

 

The plugs are way different, it doesnt use a 3 pin plug, it uses some odd rectangle 6 pin job.
