front turn signal not blinking
 

Almost got ALL of my lights working at once. The main hold out is front pass turn signal. Comes on as a running light but does not blink for turn signal. Inside indicator blinking, left front works normal. New shipment from Pelican today, have lots of bulbs and fuses. Is this a ground problem?

Electrics is my weakest subject, and this baby got a few kinks in that dept.

Still can't get horn to work. New relay today, nada. I did find the horns, all seems to be connected as prescribed. I've popped off the horn pad and cleaned the contacts by the springs. Am I supposed to take off the three little pieces by the springs, are there more contacts under there? I don't have a volt meter yet (hello, Santa...) If I pull the horns out can I hook them straight up to 12 volt to test or is that too much current?

Thanks

It sounds like a relay for the blinker too, but don't quote me.

You can hook the horns directly to 12V. Why don't you get yourself an inexpensive multimeter so you can deduce where the problem is. Think of voltage as water pressure. Think of current as water flow. Think of pipe size and length as resistance.

Volts are volts.
Current is measured in amperes
Resistance is ohms.

With a voltmeter, which is one function of a multimeter, you could easily check to see if horn is getting the voltage it needs when you press the horn button.

If I had to guess about it, I'd guess the horn has lost its ground.

Yeh, I see that I will have to have one to keep up with this stuff. Don't know exectly how to use it(I know it has a black and a red probe and it measures current), but I'll give it a shot. So my question is, all of these things that need to be grounded (like the horn) it gets it ground from the frame right? Like the bracket touching the frame? There isn't a seperate wire going to some place as the ground? Does my question make sense?

Also, with my headlights cutting off at random times, the PO had installed some aftermarket (cheap) yellow fog lights where the stock ones went. The are (were) plugged into the regular factory connection. I pulled them out and will replace with factory. But they were on all the time with the headlights. The fog light switch on the dash lights up, but did not seem to operate the lights. Could this have been my problem? I have read posts about the current draw from higher powered lights without correct relays etc. The headlights "seem" to be staying on now, but it was so random when they cut out I can't really tell yet. Guesses?????

Think of it as water...
 

So if I acidently break an electrical conduit on the wall all of the electrons will run all over the ground???
