BX 1500 4 way flashers won't flash or light up when switch is turned on.
Turn signal lights do work ok,so I don't think a burned out bulb is the problem .
I suspect the switch or the 4 way flasher.
What do you all think?
How do i go about checking it out?
Anyone got any other ideas?
Thanks,
LB.

bulbs, flasher, switch, wires & fuses.

Am I missing something, but shouldn't you just use a different tractor that has the working flashers installed?

*Good idea.

except this one won't clear snow off the driveway worth a hoot.
Must be the turf tires.:D

Could the switch have gotten wet? I had that happen to my BX but it did the opposite, wouldn't shut off.

*I did too with my BX23 but this is the BX1500
that's parked inside.
It was not snowing or raining out side when I was using it yesterday.

swap the switches around it wont take long to find the problem.
If you have to buy a replacement dont go with the dealer way to high
i bought 3 from this place very cheap.The one your talking about is
a 3 pole i believe they should have it for just a few dollars.

First check the fuse. Second (assuming it is not the fuse) you need to figure out if it is the switch.. Just unplug the wires from the switch then short them together. If the lights work, the problem is your switch. Same thing with the flasher, short around it to see if the lights light.

If it is your switch, it is probably just dirty.. Pop it out, pop it open, see if anything is broken, clean the contacts, apply a little dielectric grease, put back together. I did this just a couple weeks ago.
