Normal Operation
The rear flasher relay (switched side) is supplied voltage from the battery junction box (BJB) through circuit 1271 (VT). Voltage is provided to the rear flasher relay coil through circuit 705 (LG/OG). Ground for the rear flasher relay coil is provided through circuit 486 (BN/WH) to the decklid ajar switch when the decklid is open. When the rear flasher relay is energized, voltage is routed to the rear flasher through circuit 383 (RD/WH). The rear flasher in turn, alternates voltage to the LH and RH flasher lamps through circuits 1 (DB) and 2 (WH/LB), respectively.

Possible Causes
- Fuse
- Circuit 1 (DB) open, short to ground or voltage
- Circuit 2 (WH/LB) open, short to ground or voltage
- Circuit 57 (BK) open
- Circuit 383 (RD/WH) open or short to voltage
- Circuit 486 (BN/WH) open or short to ground
- Circuit 705 (LG/OG) open
- Circuit 1271 (VT) open
- Rear flasher
