Driver Side Hazard Flashing When Off 1974 Plymouth Valiant Scamp
I tried hooking the TSS back up, same problem.
I used the old TSS harness to hook up only Emergency Flasher power and LR and/or RR. No turn signal flasher installed, no turn signal flasher power hooked up. Rear lights still flash with hazard switch off.
Taking a closer look and using the multimeter, the Emergency Flasher feed lands on the TSS as a blue wire on the bottom center terminal on the hazard switch. The top left terminal on the hazard switch has a white wire that goes underneath to the right terminal on the turn signal cam. That in turn feeds underneath to a terminal that feeds LR, and a second terminal that feeds RR.
Whether the hazard switch is on or off, that top left terminal with the white wire is hot, which sends power to LR and RR lights. I would expect with the hazard switch off, the top left terminal would not receive power. When hazard switch is on, it would send power to that terminal, which in turn goes to LR and RR lights. But maybe I'm missing something.
This is really an exercise in understanding the switch and wiring better as I still intend to replace this switch regardless.
Is that top left terminal at the hazard switch supposed to always be hot?
