88 NA electrical problems. HELP!

Hey guys. My FC i just bought has the usual electrical problems such as wipers, dash lights etc. I guess I can live with those but the one problem that is bugging the hell outa me is the turn signals dont work. Its not the bulbs and not the fuse. I hear the clicking noise but the indicators dont light up nor do any of the outside flashers. Any ideas???

Thanks

The Flasher unit is built into the CPU. Remove and replace it or buy another CPU. YOU might remove the flasher from the CPU and see if you can sand down the flasher contacts.

Do a search for FLASHER and use the name ICEMARK.

Mazdatrix has the replacement boards.

I've seen a few pop up every now and then in the 2nd Gen For Sale section on this forum.

I got mine off EBay about a year ago. I got it for a song and hasn't given me any troubles.
