[MBZ] Intermittent blinkers
Snow, or what passes for snow came today. Gump pulled a stupid stunt and played where is the blinker? Start up and all electrical is fine. Blinkers work both left and right. Drive for about 20 minutes on the highway, all is fine. Get off the highway to street speed and the darn blinkers go away. Hazards are fine. Cycle the hazard button a bunch of times, indicators show blinks, but the stalk does not work. Dead, no engage for blinks left or right. Finally come to park, no blinks with key in on position. Go inside and come back later, you have blinkers again. Until you go highway and repeat. No blinkers again. Any insight? -- Clay Seattle Bioburner 1972 220D - Gump 1995 E300D - Cleo 1987 300SDL - POS - DOA The FSM would drive a Diesel Benz

Re: [MBZ] Intermittent blinkers
Go inside and come back later, you have blinkers again. Until you go highway and repeat. No blinkers again. The Frankenheap is playing a bit of this game. I have to waggle the stalk manually sometimes to get blinking. I've found that if I play with the hazard knob I can get it going again. I think it's time to dive into the hazard switch/flasher relay (one and the same). Probably a bad contact or loose connection inside. -- Jim

Could be. Maybe I pissed off the FSM? Either way, I would love to have a 115 Krankenwagen. Then I have a true Wagongeist On Thursday, December 1, 2005, at 08:28 PM, OK Don wrote: Wagongeist.
