Hi everybody,

I am building a '33 Hot Rod (and next will be a 818).
But I have a problem with my turn signal....

Are the turn signals supposed to work while the headlights are on? I can't get mine to work.

So when the headlights are off than the turn signal & hazard lights work, but when i put the lights (and running lights on) then the turn signals won't work in the front.....
(at the rear they work)

If anybody could help me that would be great, thanks in advance

Do you have the hazards switch plugged in, it needs to be to have the lights/ blinkers work properly. Key just has to be on for blinkers. Also you need all lighting circuit grounds grounded for it all to work properly. Negatively switched headlights.

Thanks for the advice metalmaker, the hazard switch is plugged in and also working....but not working when the lights are on (rear does work), every part has his own ground.
Just noticed that I put the topic at the wrong forum, sorry moderators.
I will post it again in the Hot Rod forum.
