Question Turn signal question - 01 Spectra

I gotta problem with the turn signals... they don't work. I hooked up a volt meter to the relay and the fuses and they all are getting power when the emerg flashers or turn signals are switched on. But the TS lights will not light up - none of them. HELP!! Is there anything between the fuse block and the lights that i'm missing?

Re: Turn signal question - 01 Spectra

so power is going to the relay... but is the relay making? I don't have any electrical diagrams, and I'm a residential/comercial electrician, not automotive; but my guess would be a corroded connection at the first place that is hit in the circuit. If i understand properly, when "made" the relay will bring a ground and power would already be at the light.

But heck, I didn't realize the turn signals actually had a relay involved...

Re: Turn signal question - 01 Spectra

well, i put in a new relay and the prob still exists. thats what i'm thinking - a corroded or disconnected plug somewhere after the fuse block.
