My turn indicators won't come on but they come on when I put the hazards on. I checked the fuses and also checked the high beams. Everything but the turn lights come on. Anyone know?

Which ground? I had re-done my grounds. Sanded, cleaned, and greased. So I doubt it could be that... maybe it's my switch...

Yes, the flasher board. Trust him, he knows what he is talking about. Click on the link in his signature and it will take you to his web site. That is where you must go if you are to learn the ways of the force.....

Oh yeah.
Instead of using the same $3.99 flasher unit that every PepBoys in the world stocks, Mazda decided that this simple function would be much better handled by a computer.

Hopefully the engineer who made this decision was later shot and buried in potter's field but it's more likely he moved on to BMW where he designed the iStick clusterfuck.
