I would like to address this to Kevin Elliott if I may. On page 38 of the June issue you are writing about changing out the column, I notice in the top photo that you are using the same turn signal switch that I use and under the dash it looks like two flashers. You didn't use a column connection of course so how did you hook up the switch to both flashers?
I have all of the lights connected and working but had to wire around the turn signal switch 'cause I can't get it to work. Yes the grounds are good, the lights work. I do have LED tail lights but I have the proper flashers for that. I've been through five different sources for the wiring diagram and I am certain that all the light wires from the switch are correct...all but to the fuse panel and the flashers. So how did you do yours? Please and thank you!!!

Okey, here's the deal, but don't tell anyone, okay? I still haven't figured out how to connect that turn signal switch to the EZ Wiring harness. Those relays you see under the dash are part of the EZ kit and aren't both flashers.
I know this doesn't help you right now, however we will shortly be working with EZ Wiring in the magazine, and will be asking how to hook up turn signals when you don't use the GM column and it's associated connector, so stay tuned!

Kevin,
Thanks, I've had it hooked up a dozen different ways and so far none have worked. I get no results at all or the lights work but don't flash. There have been several people who have offered to help but so far no one has shown up in my shop. I can just stick my arm out the window the way we used to.
Thanks again, and my lips are sealed

Funny, I'm finding my arm works just fine too!
