Turn Signal Woes - '98 S70GLT

I'm posting this for one of my bosses: she has the above car, and
this evening lost her turn signals on the way to work. After the car
sat for a while, they started working again. What are the most likely
gremlins? Thanks in advance.

This year had a recall for turn signal sockets. We have a '98 S70, and
bulbs were always burning out from the time we bought it. Talk to a dealer.

If the lights come on but the flashing is gone, you may want to look at the
relay. It is part of the HAZARD button that you remove by first taking out
the ashtray (2 screws)underneath and pushing out the HAZARD button towards
the gear shift lever to unplug. Had to do it on my 98 S70 last month!

Good luck

 

Thanks. I'll tell her to try that if the lights were lit. I think
that
they were out, but I'm not sure.

I had to do this to my S70 as well, with exactly the same symptoms.
However I slid the radio out (no disconnection required) and loosened
the hazard switch/relay that way. No screws!
