Where can that flasher be?

I have a ford van e150 econoline 302 engine.

My turn signal flasher clicks a few times and stops. Its as though it needs a rest period (ignition off) before it will resume flashing again. It has never glowed any lights during this short term clicking.

Suspect it is just a bad flasher I hope!

Trouble is, I can't find it, I hear it during the short duration it decides to click, but can't see much under the dash much less getting my hand up in there to pull it off because of so much stuff.

I though I found it, but it turned out to be the emergency flashers which work fine on all bulbs.

Where could it be?

Thanks for any help!

Charles

Hi rustydog,

Doesn't seem to be anything but smooth metal behind my fuse block. That's all I could feel scraping the skin off my hand doing it.

The whole block is mounted on a steel plate. I saw in the manual where the flashers were supposed to be in the fuse block, but boy my two isn't.

All it has is fuses and the square metal thing what ever that is. That metal thing is not the flasher cause I pulled it out and still heard the flasher ticking.

I found my hazard flasher pluged into a wire that was just laying up near the head light switch up in the dash , I had to use a lot of pull so I could get it pulled down just bearly enough to grasp the plugend with one hand and pull off the flasher with the other.

I don't think I'm going to be so lucky with the regular flasher. It has finally stop clicking now and that was my last hope in pinpointing it's location.

Thanks

Charles

Flasher

The flasher is located directly under the fuse box. The service Mgr. said behind the box, but is completely visible

actually, the turn signal flasher is on the front of the fuse panel, under the back cover. To access the 4-way flasher, you must unbolt the fuse panel from the firewall, and then the flasher is mounted on the back.
