    Turn signal question

    I am slightly perplexed by my turn signals, of all things. On my 1969 911S the battery is fully charged and the turn signals in the front and rear of the car work fine. But the turn signal indicator arrows imbedded in the tach blink only once or twice then fade away to darkness, even though the outside turn signals continue to function normally. Any thoughts?

    As always, many thanks!

    I imagine it's the turn signal relay in trunk, up behind the instruments.

    Mine will do this at idle but under full revs, all is good, so I expect it's a bit of a charging issue but more likely a less-than-ideal grounding situation.

    Haul hit the nail on the head...I checked fuse #8 and it was corroded. I cleaned it up and the turn signals work perfectly! Took all of 60 seconds.

    This forum is amazing...special thanks to Haul.
