1986 rx7 base turn signals not working but hazards do
hey all i recently re installed the dash in my car, and now my turn signals aren't working. I have checked the fuses, re-soldered the CPU, and replaced the turn signal switch. My hazards work, and if i take a jumper wire to the pig tail for the switch the turn signals work fine. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
The plug at the CPU housing the wires from the turn signal switch should have a Green/Red wire and a Green/Yellow wire. Turn signal set to right turn and the G/Y wire should have voltage. Signal set to left turn and the G/R wire should then have voltage. Do they?

Czech ur grounds
Edit:
Google:
For most vehicles the hazards and signals are two separate circuits, they have separate fuses and separate flashers. Check your signal light fuse and signal light flasher.
Double edit:
Check wiring to turn signal stalk and the turn signal stalk itself

I suggest downloading a wiring diagram.

Earlier he posted the G/R and G/Y wires had 12 volts when they should have and for it to have voltage on these wires then the B/R wire (powered by the turn fuse) powering the turn switch must have power.

The only way the G/R wire and G/Y wire can possiby get voltage is from the B/R wire so it doesn't make sense. And what R/W wire is he talking about as there is no such wire related to this circuit.
Another thing is ACC powers just the accessory fuses and the turn fuse is powered by IG1 so turning the key to on is required to check the source of voltage going to the relevant fuse.
And to the op, you stated in your first post that you jumpered a wire to the switch and everything worked. Well, what wire was jumpered to?

Yea it was the turn fuse. I originally tested it with a test light and it lit up on both pins. but i still was not getting power to the B/R wire. Earlier someone had said check the fuse and grounds. so i grabbed a spare fuse ,and then swapped it with the old one. Then what do you know 12V at the B/R wire. So i put every thing back together and they worked. As far as the R/W wire go. i was looking at my work shop manual's pigtail pin location for the turn signal lever(listed as the dimmer switch cr-03). The problem was i was thinking the B/R was the R/W. Second look revealed that i looked at it wrong. Just want to apologize to everyone that replied to the post, feel like i wasted ur time.

Btw I was jus jokin about that b/r wire
