C3 TS Flasher Location?

[Rob E. Zwissler]

I believe my turn signal flasher is out on my 1976. I could not find the
location of this in my Haynes or Chiltons. I have found the flasher for
the hazards (fuse box), the alarm (behind passenger seat), and I have searched
for the turn signal flasher with no luck, including under the steering wheel
where I would think it would be located. If it is under/around the steering
wheel, does it look like the other flashers (round cylinder - Flasher #552 I
think)?

Later,

I just went through this myself the night before!!

I have a '73 - I followed the entire wiring diagram and NOWHERE does it tell
you where this thing is. It says it's on a pink/white and purple wire. It
drove me nuts until I later remembered having taken off the PASSENGER side
panel, that the Turn Signal Flasher is actually behind that panel, right
next to the air vent! It's just on a little metal clip (if your '76 is like
my '73) and has a pigtal connector on it. It's nowhere near the fusebox. I
have no idea why they did it this way but that's where it is!

Hope it's the same and this helped!

Rob,

Just like on Ken's '73, my '77 has the flasher on the bottom right corner of
the passenger dash panel near the vent (keep in mind that you don't have to
remove the panel to get to it). I remember a flasher unit being there when
I replaced my heater core, but I wasn't sure what it was there for until I
looked it up in my shop manual because I have an similar flasher under the
center console. I just looked through the shop manual and found that one is
the anti-theft flasher. The shop manual is a great resource (its only
drawback is that it has no index).

Good Luck,
Jerry '77

The flasher for my '76 is behind the passenger side front dash.

the turn signal flasher is located behind the passenger side of the dash, near
the courtesy light on the right side.
