Instrument cluster out, now no turn signals

[JohnW63]

I just pulled the instrument cluster, to install another upper speed-o cable, and when I got it all back together, I found the upper cable didn't fix my problem, and ... I've got no turn signals or hazard flashers.

The front side lights will light up, left or right, but no flashing. The rears don't light. The brake lights work fine. There is no clicking going on. The multifunction switch works every thing else, wipers, high beams, etc.

I read in one of the other threads that it is tied to the head light switch. Is there something I could have knocked loose, pulling the dash panel ?

start simple
did you check fuses?

 

[JohnW63]

Yeah. Fuse #1, under the dash. It looked fine. I swapped it anyway.

It turned out to be the hazard button. I had tried pushing it on and off , with no change in the problem. But as I was messing with stuff, and the gauge cluster portion of the dash was sitting on it, and I lifted the steering column, I heard the click of the hazards. I felt around for anything loose and then found it was the button. It didn't feel loose, but I tried moving it around in a circle and in and out a few times and it now works, and so do the turn signals. I'm not sure if the switch is dirty or failing, but that was the issue.

If the problem returns, I guess I will need another multi-function switch. How much are those and where do you get them ?
