Hi,

any help would be great! i have just installed a cigarette lighter in a rabbit,
now the blinkers dont blink i didnt go anywhere near the blinkers, the light comes on and thats it

someone please help........

Try the flash cam - the box shaped thing which plugs into the fuse box with three prongs. Pull it out, put it back in, see if there's any blink.

It's a simple test and a place to start anyway. I had intermittent problems with mine a while back with nothing seeming to cause or cure it (fixed itself).

Is you hazard flasher switch wiring plugged in properly. Did you disturb it when you did the wiring?? That will stop blinkers working.

Not sure which fuse is for the blinkers, but the flash cam is one of the big cubes on the upper part of the fuse box. Can't recall if mine has more than one. I guess some trial and error would help?

I also seem to recall a plug leading to the back of the fuse box once came loose on mine and caused some probs (can't remember details, sorry). So check everything is plugged into the back. The simple things are ofen the cause and can be eaily overlooked.

thanks guys...........

i have no idea now, i bought a new flasher, no good
checked the wiring.......no good

when i was installing the cig lighter the acc wire went dead, it was strange, checked the fuses they were ok....... had to wire another acc wire from somewhere else, NOW THAT DOESNT WORK EITHER, cig lighter, radio or blinkers, im going backwards

looks like i will go to a sparky damnit

it will be a fuse mate...sounds like a circuit you have made is bad...maybe when you installed the cig lighter one of the positive wires is being earthed out somewhere...that would kill the whole circuit.
