  • Electrical: No Rear turn signal

    On my "new" '63 Champ, I have no rear right turn signal. Left works front and back, the right works front only. Is there one flasher unit or two? I have located one flasher which has two wires coming out of it. The rear right bulb filaments are both good, and no voltage is going to the socket when the signal is on. Help!
    One bulb has three functions: tail light, brake light and turn signal, with 2 filaments, right?

    Do both brake lights work?

      Better check your turn signal switch. Brake lights are routed thru it and serve for turn sigs also. A bad contact in your turn signal switch will cause the problem you're having. BTW yes, there is only one flasher unit in the system. Good luck.

        There is also a wire harness connector by the left kick panel (& high beam switch) where the wire harness going to the rear of the truck is located. You may test the leads there to see if there is a right rear signal there & if so, then there is a break in the harness at some point.
