turn signal relay on 91 200
 

Has anyone had experience where their turn signals quit working completely
w/ a 91 200? The fuse is good, the switch on the column is relatively new.
Both the turn signals and 4 way flashers are not working. My bentley manual
says the flasher relay is located behind the guage cluster of the dash!? Any
BTDT would be appreciated as I don't want to pull the dash.
TIA.
Andy

That is correct, it is behind the instrument cluster. You can partially
remove the cluster itself enough to reach behind and change the flasher
relay. No need to pull the dash.

Re: turn signal relay on 91 200
 

It sounds like you are chasing the correct source of the problem.

Removing the instrument cluster (IC) is quite easy on the '91 200.

Just under the lower edge of the IC is a trim strip in which you will find
several screws (allen drive). Remove these and the IC will pull out and slide
toward the center of the car. You will not need to remove the steering wheel or
mess with the air bag.

Once the IC is out everything is very accessible.
