What is the reason for the turn signal not working in Hafei Saibao?
2 Answers
Hafei Saibao turn signal not working reasons are as follows: Relay failure: First, check whether the live wire terminal of the flasher relay has power. If there is no power, check whether the line to the power supply is open. If there is power, use a screwdriver to connect the two terminals of the flasher relay. If the turn signal lights up, it indicates that the flasher relay is faulty and should be replaced promptly. Turn switch failure: If the contact gap is too large, it should be adjusted. If the turn signal does not light up when the movable contact is pressed and the contact is closed, you can use a screwdriver to short-circuit the contact. If the light turns on, it indicates that the contact is oxidized. If the turn signal still does not light up, the turn switch may be faulty. Use a screwdriver to connect the live wire of the turn switch to the left and right light wire terminals separately. If the light turns on, it means the turn switch is faulty and should be removed for repair or replacement.
A while ago, my turn signals also acted up. First, I checked the bulbs and found the right front one had blackened and stopped working. These older cars are most prone to bulb aging issues, especially if frequently driven at night. Then, I opened the fuse box under the steering wheel and found the 15A turn signal fuse had indeed blown. If a replacement fuse blows again, you should be wary of possible wire insulation damage causing a short. Worn turn signal switches are also a common issue – I later noticed the lever wasn’t returning smoothly. If all else fails, it’s best to directly measure the voltage at the flasher relay contacts, as a decade-old car’s relay lifespan is likely nearing its end. Regular maintenance should pay attention to these vulnerable parts; sudden failure could be a serious hazard.
