My turn signals are not working properly, the right hand side will blink a few times then dies off or it will turn on and not blink at all..if hazard light on, right hand light will intermittently dies and back on again..my usual mech says it is fuse box problem..but since that part for my car quite hard to find, any suggestions what else could be wrong? Driving kia cerato v2 here..thanks!

 

Not fuse problem.

Quite likely a ground problem. Ground wire has a bad connection somewhere.

For those who wish to supply hot wires ( by-passing the ignition switch, direct from battery ) to yr accessories, for safety reasons and to prevent fire , always insists on routing the wire via online fuse, if going to the fuse box is difficult or not possible.

 

That is the problem with many mechanics. They simply wire up and make sure it works without understanding the elect wiring. Best not to alter the existing circuit.

 

Not only every single circuit should be protected by a fuse, the rating of the cable and fuse rating are equally important. You don't want your wire to burn before your fuse. This is one of the causes for fire in vehicle.

This " Add-a-Circuit " fuse accessories is very simple to use, just plug into a used or un-use fuse outlet and crimp the new electric accessories live wire to the blue connector , earth wire to body chassis. No more cutting and twisting wire. Very safe, neat and  no need to engage auto electrician for the simple installation.

important to understand fuse rating, load and cable size.

 

best if you have a spare link in your fuse box.
