You know, the little round thang that makes your turn signals blink. Really, I can't find the sonomabeach, and I don't want to have to start tearing panels off only to find out it is right in front of me!!ARGGGHHHHHH! HELP!

I'm looking on page Z-61 in the 1994 FSM. It shows the flasher unit near the driver's side left footwell, on the inside of the car. That probably doesn't help much...

I think I know the answer to this question, but can't you just activate your turn signal and find the box that makes the clicking noise? Let me guess; your flashers don't work?

Thanks Paw140. Ding. We have a winner! I REALLY need to buy that electrical book.

Um, yeah, it DID occur to me to listen for the clicking noise. I remember I tried that technique one time when the horns were on the fritz but that didn't work either.

Hey, didn't you have a problem with a cat pissing on your ride? I thought I came up with a solution for that ...

Yeah, the cat pissing thing! That was a great looking little device

By the way, its not in the electrical book, its in the regular workshop manual, section Z. Unless I have some special manual that included the wiring stuff.... hmm....

If you got the full size manual, then section Z IS a different book. If you got that small little cheesy manual, then section Z is just another chapter....

Yeah, I got the cheesy small manual, which I'm still kind of pissed about. I paid like $110 for it from Racing Beat, thinking I was getting the regular size version. Their website said it was the same manual the dealers use (nope). Found out later I could have gotten it from a Mazda dealer for like $50 (at least that's what they quoted me over the phone).

Hey, isn't it past your bedtime?

Yeah, I couldn't afford to buy T, U and Z. 10 years ago after shelling out $32 large. They want $50 bucks for it at the dealer and you KNOW how cheap I am.
