    Hello,

    Went for a cruise in my maverick the other day and i lost my signal lights. I immediately thought it was the flasher, so i bought one, plugged it in but they still don't work. What do you think it could be? The E-lights work, but the signal lights won't.

    Thank you

    There are 2 flasher fuses under the dash. Are you sure you replaced the right one? One is for the turn signals & one for the 4 way flasher....

    The one near the fuse panel I tried first. When I unplugged it I tried the E-lights and they didn't work. I put it back in and they worked. So I looked online to find the signal flasher (I guess there are only two flashers?). I replaced the other one and they still don't work. The green arrows don't show in the dash either, and there is no "clicking" sound. I guess it's time to check the fuses.
