Check that the bulbs are all good.

As a side note, I put all LED bulbs in my 58, except for the turn signal bulbs on top of the front fenders (and the indicator bulbs in the dash). I did not change my flasher and it works fine. You need at least one or two incandescent bulbs to make one of the old style flashers work. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 295 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2010 Posts: 295 | Thanks will check the bulbs fuses and ground wires
