faulty flasher?!

[Switch3287]

Sooo i have followed the TM flow chart all the way to the end and i still cant get my turn signals to flash.... they illuminate but dont flash... i have a new MME flasher installed but still no dice... anybody ever have a fulty flasher out of the box?!

current issue turn signal or hazards stay on solid when toggled (no flashing) also on the dash they show a solid arrow.

And what happens if you try a turn signal or hazard flash application with the flasher unplugged? I would guess nothing will happen, and yes, I would say the flasher is bad…

The standard mil flashers don’t seem to be all that robust. I replaced mine with a commercially available 3 wire solid state unit made by Grote #44010, about $37…

Maybe this will help someone from having to flip between half a dozen pages in the schematic. Apologies for any mistakes and/or for not having finished it. Feel free to send me changes and I will make corrections, if needed.

Nice, Very nice!

Are you certain you have a 12v flasher and not a 24v?

i believe it is the 24v flasher. im sorta learning as i go here mine was totally robbed before i got the truck... i know there 12v and 24v power in the truck i just assumed it was 24v for the flasher =( does it need to be a 12v flasher? if so im gonna gut the new flasher housing and put a napa 12v unit it the carcus!

sorry to get back to the thread late... but every time i need a part it takes a week to get up here in alaska... it was a 24v flasher. im gonna try to see if i can gut the military one and fit my aftermarket 12 volt unit in... pics attached..
