Hazard/emergency flashers

On my 73 Vert the 4way/hazard/emergency flashers do not flash, they just stay solid on, dash,front,rear all. I have replaced the flasher relay but have the same symptom. Any suggestions? :smoke:

I think there are two relays. One for hazard and one for turn signal. I had that problem with a Mustang so I’m guessing that the Cougar might be the same. Hope that helps.

Yes Steven, there are 2, or at least from what I have been able to find :laughing: They are both different and the turn signals work fine which is the real head scratcher. :think: Thanks for the reply tho :smoke:

Bump :laughing: Anybody else, anything? Brake lights work, reverse lights work, sequentials work,turn signals work all as they should. But emergency just stay on steady all the way around. :think:

Thanks Scott, the shop manual says the hazard flashers are broken down into 6 items, (1) 15 amp circuit breaker, I assume since the lights come on thats good. But I did meter all the fuses anyway (2) hazard warning flasher, replaced, no change, possible 2 bad flashers with same problem? it wasnt new, out of another cougar and I cant verify it was working in the other one (3) Turn Signal and Hazard Indicator switch assembly, turn signals work properly, hazards light up when the switch is pulled so I assume thats good (4) Transistorized Sequencer Assembly in trunk, I assume thats the same for the turn signals which work fine, (5) 2 indicator bulbs, I assume thats the turn signal bulbs in the cluster which also work fine with the turn signals, (6) The 8 outside lights which all work fine in their other jobs. Reading through what I just wrote I guess I should try and find somewhere to get a new flasher ? :smoke:
