Default No Turn Signals

I have a 96 accord and i know that when you dont have the hazard switch in you wont have any blinkers. Well I lost my turn signals today and I dont know how to get them back I checked all the fuses they are all good. I do have the headlights and the jdm corners working but there is no turn signal at all. could this be cause when I hooked up the jdm corners I took one buld out from each side. please someone help me.

Who needs turn signals. Just stick your hand out the window.

Did you check the 7.5 amp turn signal fuse under the dash? And the 15 amp hazard fuse in the engine bay?

This sounds stupid but did you check your turn signal bulbs to make sure they aren't burnt out?:fawk:

So since we all know the turn signals won't work if the hazard button isn't installed..........is the hazard button fully hooked up?

Connection may have come loose.

If not is the switch burnt out?

Seems logical conclusions to me.

OK correct me if im wrong. On a Stock 94-97 accord you have 2 bulbs in your corner lights. Im pretty sure one bulb does the blinking and the other bulb stays on. The Real JDM stanley corner lights have one bulb insert. You said you put one bulb in the corner lights. Now I just got a pair of JDM headlights/corner lights. The only bulb/corner plugs that will fit is the the one that stays on all the time. Unless I got some special pair that does not let the blinking bulb/plug fit in it.

So basically you put the blub/plug that stays on fully and left the one that does the blinking out? Am I correct? That is my guess. Im pretty sure it is this cause or the post above.

Actually the 94-95 corner bulbs is the one where only one blinks and the other stays on. In the 96-97 both stay on. The 96-97 front bumper turn signal is bigger then 94-95 because DOT requires that turn signal be visible from the front and front right side.

You can just swap the sockets by cutting off the socket on the one that blinks and rewire it to fit.
