Where is the flasher located on a 1996-1999 Taurus - Sable?

What does it look like and where's it mounted The flasher/turn signal is screwed into the metal support above the fuse panel, you must take the bottom of the dash off and remove the plastic cover. This is for a sable that has light out detection Look under your dash for a blue box screwed into the right side of the dash panel. This of course is done, with you laying on your back, and your feet in the back seat It's a blue box, about the size of half a twinkie (cream filled, golden sponge cake) Remove the plug that holds it in, unscrew the screw that holds it to the frame, and go to Autozone or other parts store, to get a new relay You will have to reuse the metal piece that holds the relay to the dash panel, so be sure and save that before you throw the old part away Installation is the reverse First Squirt easing oil, No Kidding!

Don't even try until you lubricate the "multifunction switch" behind the steering wheel, which usually causes this problem. Squirt easing oil into the hole where the Hazard switch sits. Be generous.

Operate the switch repeatedly. Operate the turn-signal switch repeatedly. Add more easing oil if needed.

If that doesn't work, get a replacement flasher from your local auto parts store for about $10 (or pay $40-50 at the Ford parts window). Look up under the dash to the left of the steering wheel for a blue plastic cube. Remove that and plug the replacement in The easing oil trick worked for me!

No kidding. It worked like a charm. I highly suggest trying it before you do anything else.

Easing oil also fixed my dome light switches. My Dome lights wouldn't turn off but after saturating the door latches on each door, the switches started working again Fixing a Flasher on a 1996 Ford Taurus The flasher (a single one for both turn signals and the hazard lights) is close under the dash left of the steering column. Original equipment is a blue plastic square that fits into a three-pole receptacle served by black, blue, and red-white wires But don't rush to replace it yet.

First, do what my friend learned to do from WikiAnswers -- squirt easing oil down around the Hazard switch button behind the steering wheel, where the "multi-function switch" is located. Be generous with the lubricant. Soak the switch good.

Work the hazard switch on and off a dozen times. Then work the turn signal switch right and left a dozen times. If nothing improves, let it sit a few minutes, then try the flashers again.

Add more easing oil If you have to give up on easing oil, check the fuses for the hazard and the turn signals lights (separate fuses). If they're good, remove the flasher and replace it ($10 at your friendly universal after-market parts store, ($40-50 at your local Ford dealer). Save the receipt so you can return the flasher for a refund, as my friend did after easing oil did the trick Testimonial Holy Cow!

I just happened to be stuck with my wife's Grandfather's 96 Taurus today and the turn signals and flashers didn't work. I followed the overly simple procedure in the preceding two paragraphs and it worked like a charm. Suhweeet!

Answer The manual I have says the flasher assembly is under the drivers side of the instrument panel and it is held in by one retaining screw. It shows a small square unit with three blades which plug into a connector on the end of wire. It appears to be screwed into an under dash brace member which supports the instrument panel.My flasher is failing intermittently.

I haven't gotten around to replacing it yet, so I can't guarantee this description is accurate. I hope this information helps Answer Indicator flasher assy 13550. This is an electronic combination turn signal and emergency warning flasher.

It is attached on the left hand side of the instrument panel reinforcement above the fuse panel. The main wiring harness is assy 14401 Answer It could be the flasher, another fuse, the turn signal switch or an electrical connector. You will need to get a schematic for the turn signal system then track back to where you get power.

Follow the line to the point where you no longer get power they you will have found the source of the problem Answer The Flasher Relay is located behind the left side of the instrument panel There is no flasher on the 98 Sable, it has a LCM (Lighting Control Module) Dealer only item unless you wanna take a chance at the junk yard.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
