'70 911T Turn Signals Not Working (caught in rain)
Caught in some rain yesterday. Now none of the turn signals work. Just noticed on the way to work and could not check much yet. I verified fuses were making contact and seemed like they were. Open for suggestions when I get home this evening. Thanks very much.

Check if the hazards still work, that will prove wiring power and bulbs and earths

Thanks to Porboynz and T77911S for the replies. After it sat outside yesterday at work the signals worked. Then on the way home they stopped working again. Once home I left it sit outside in the sun for a couple hours. Still no luck. I checked the fuses again and found one blown that seemed to coincide with turn signals. Put a new one in and all is well. THANKS!

How did the rain cause the fuse to blow ?

the lens can leak and the turn signal will fill with water.
