Hart

Thanks alot. Bill

Bill

I feel we found our problom.

does the van have tilt wheel?

Hart

 

Customer replied 1852 days and 14 hours ago.

yes

Picture
Expert:  RD replied 1851 days and 14 hours ago.

Ok

were the wiring connects to the turn signal switch, trace this back to where it swivels at the tilt,

this area you might find a brake in the wiring, if you go down past there you might see where it got rubbed on the brake peddle or on the shift lever swivel

 

let me know if you find something

Customer replied 1851 days and 14 hours ago.

I have checked this. It was ok. I did notice Saturday that when I have the 4 way flasher on and turn the signals on, whichever side I turn on does not affect the whole rear side. It only makes the light on the side I turn the signal to go out and stop flashing. On most cars when you turn on 4 ways and hit brake rear brake lights come on anyway. Does this help?

Expert:  RD replied 1851 days and 13 hours ago.

Hello

Here is a blow up of the relay panel

i would check the wiring here for possibly a loose wire or a wire damaged from moister if you remove the screws you can flip the panel over to see the back side

Customer replied 1850 days and 13 hours ago.

Checked all these and they are fine. checked at bcm also. really at wits end by now.
