Where is the turn signal flasher located on a 1995 Lincoln Town Car?

Answer 1

TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE THERE IS NO PLUG-IN FLASHER BASE FOR REPLACEMENT. IT IS IN THE ELECTRONICS MODULE LOCATED JUST TO THE LEFT OF THE ASH TRAY PULL OUT, DOWN TOWARDS THE BOTTOM OF THE DASH. THE "FIX" IS REMOVING THE TURN SIGNAL ARM/SWITCH AND REPLACING IT OR TAKING IT APART AND CLEANING THE SWITCH WHICH IS LOCATED IN THE STEERING COLUMN.

I have a '98 Town Car and found that the turn signals and flashers had stopped working, but running lights were still good. I ruled-out the lighting control module, by having been told it was very reliable. The turn signal arm is fairly easy to remove. The steering column shroud (cover) is held together with Phillips screws underneath. But the steering tilt engagement arm will need to be unscrewed before the blinker arm can be pulled down and out. The tilt-arm is screwed in w/some wicked locktite. I had to use vice grips with a swatch of bike-tube rubber to keep from marring the metal. after that, the blinker arm can be removed with a 7mm socket, and the 2 wiring harnesses can be unplugged. After removing the arm, I cleaned the unit with a can of QD electro-contact cleaner (plastic safe) from the home center. I did this WITHOUT disassembling the actual blinker-arm unit. Instead I found numerous openings in the plasiic housing to inject the cleaner. After giving the unit a little time to dry, I plugged the 2 harnesses in back in, and everything worked like new.
