Bus is a 66. Rear hazards work but nothing up the front when turn signals are on or when hazards switched on. Checked fuses and cleaned them all. Ideas? |

This document from the FAQ's at the top of this forum helped me immensely when sorting out the flashers etc. on my 66. Checking and cleaning the fuses might help, but the wiring on the back of the fuse box, where the female spade connectors of the wires slip on to the male spades on the box should be looked at as well. And at least in my 66 Microbus, the factory sure wasn't very liberal on the length of the wiring to the fuse box. It's a tight spot. Also, at least when it came to my 66 that looked to be all original, it was wired to the fuse box opposite of the wiring diagrams. In other words, what looks like it would be connected to the top connection of a certain fuse, on my bus it was a connection to the bottom of the fuse box at a certain fuse. Only way I can explain the way the connections would appear to match the diagrams is when I had the fuse box released from it's clip to the chassis, pulled back and laying in my hand looking at the rear of the fuse box...now the connections to the top of the box would appear to be on the bottom of the box when in my hand. Good Luck!
