69 Roadrunner hazard lights

[artiststan]

Replaced hazard flasher part.. flashers now only work when key is on and I must put on turn signal.. then it flashes fine.. a fast flashing. . All lights and blinkers working fine. I assume the hazard light issue is an issue unless the flashers operated differently in 1969. Any thoughts?

While I'm not an expert at electrical, I know that the flashers should work without the key on as they do that with my car. So it seems to be that the power for the flashers is hooked up to the wrong place at the fuse box. It needs to be connected to a plug that had constant power and not one that has power only when the key is on.

Check the grounds.

How do I get behind that switch panel for lights etc. Took out 4 screws but it wouldnt budge.

Carefully pry it out un connecting all the connectors behind it it will pull straight out. Have you checked your turn signal switch? sounds like there is a bad connection there.

Yea pulling that switch holder can be a PITA ! I pump some AmorALL on the front and push from the back or use a plastic type pry bar
