Warning! The models of vehicles covered in this manual are equipped with a supplemental restraint system (SRS). Before performing any work near the air bag unit, steering column or instrument panel, disable the SRS to avoid injury from accidental deployment. The SRS circuit wiring is easily identified by its yellow insulation.
1. The direction indicator and hazard warning light circuits use a common breaker.
2. The correct functioning of the interrupter is confirmed by a clearly audible rhythmic clicking. The failure of one of the control lamps leads to the interrupter ceasing to function. If one of the indicators fails, the frequency of the interrupter operation doubles, informing the driver of the need to replace the lamp.
3. Simultaneous failure of both indicators with a high degree of probability indicates failure of the corresponding fuse. It is also possible that the breaker itself or the steering column switch has failed. Check the condition of the contact connections of the electrical wiring of the corresponding circuit. If the fuse has blown, check the electrical wiring for signs of a short circuit.
4. To replace the breaker, disconnect the wiring from it and release the assembly from the support bracket located under the instrument panel, to the right of the steering column.
5. Make sure that the replacement breaker matches the size of the faulty one.
6. Installation is carried out in reverse order.
