Default No turn signals & erratic hazard operation?

Problem car: 95 Accord LX wagon w/ manual trans.....
I first checked the interior fuse panel..all fuses are good. Found that the underhood fuse box has no label so I can't check fuses there....they all seemed to be fine anyway. I have no turn signal operation and when I use the hazard button they flash in a weird pattern...not like it was before...they don't blink in an even pattern..

I've added the fender marker lights but it doesn't seem like that's a viable reason why this has happened. I've had them hooked up for over 6 months and it's been fine until today..

Even though the OP put the year of his accord I still think someone should help him.

good luck buddy. I have the same problem. My right hand turn signal works fine. But my left hand turn signal clicks fast-and only in the rear. I've changed the wiring harness twice, and just gave up. I even found a wiring harness from a 94-97 Accord Wagon too. If I put on my hazzards, the light in the back blinks correctly...but not in the front. Again, I say Good Luck.

eez

Hmm.. Sounds like a simple problem.. One thing all of you have forgotten about is the hazard switch.. It is part of the whole circuit.. If the switch isn't working correctly, it can cause some funky things to go on.. I know this because I've had techs give up on turn signal problems before and stick me with them.. All I ever do is the usual bulb and fuse check.. Then I pull out the hazard switch and tap on it a few times and swap it out with a known good one.. By tapping on the switch, you'll sometimes find that the turn signals will work correctly.. If so, you're problem is the hazard switch. For me, that's just another common problem that a lot of season'd techs look over.. So yeah, check your hazard switch, it's very easy to remove...

Figured out it's a moisture problem. Since it was the first heavy rain this season water or condensation built up in the fuse panel area....where the relays are...I need to find out which relay is the one for hazards, I don't have a manual.

Thanks for the replies....

Added: I need to find out how to block out the moisture too........grrr
