Lada Granta missing turn signals, emergency lights are working

Turning lights are an integral element of optics in any modern car. Their purpose is to warn other road users that the driver is planning to make a maneuver. For what reasons do turn signals and emergency lights not work, how to check the functionality of optical elements and how to repair them. We will talk about this below.

Where are the fuses for Lada Kalina 2?

The fuse box is located near the driver's left foot. Pull the lower left corner of the cover (#1) to release the left locking point, then the middle (#2) and the two right locking points (#3 and 6). Then release the upper locking points (No. 4 and 5) and remove the cover.

Installing the fuse box cover is carried out in the following order: first snap the right fastening elements, then the lower ones, and then the upper ones. Make sure that the fastening elements of the cover are aligned exactly with the metal fasteners.

On the plastic cover of the mounting block there are symbols that indicate what each fuse (F) and relay (K) is responsible for, as well as their numbering.

Kamryuha is softer and quieter. I would choose the Camry without any options. Mazda is not for everyone

I do sometimes. No but not alkanes

It's starting to smoke, you'll understand

Hello people, tell me, the engine started to stall, I removed the boosters, checked the norm, checked that it was running

Igor, you yourself spoke of him as a destroyer of the people, your thinking works well for everything

Hello everyone, tell me this problem is when I turn on the high beams, the tidy and rear lights go out

Hello everyone, the following trouble occurred: the turn signals on the Lada Kalina car stopped working. The usual cause may be a burnt out light bulb.

We move to the mounting block and find fuse F1 and change it to a new one; it is important to observe the amperage of the fuse

I would also like to say that relay K5 is responsible for the blinking frequency of the turn signals. Another reason for the failure of the turn signals on Kalina may be the steering column switch. Well, that’s all we have looked at the main possible reasons why turn signals do not work. Bye everyone.

Relay and fuse box

The fuses in the Lada Kalina are located under the dashboard, in a block located to the left of the steering wheel. To get to it, you need to open the cover in which the headlight switch is built in. The lid has latches; if you pull it towards you by the upper part, it will open and fold down (its lower part is fixed on an axis).

F1 (10 A) - immobilizer, dashboard lamps and sensors, reversing light, turn signals. If any of the gauges on your dashboard stop working, or one or all of the warning lights stop lighting up, check that fuse, as well as the gauges or bulbs themselves. If the rear white light does not come on when you engage reverse gear, it could also be this fuse or the reverse switch.

The reverse switch is located on the transmission, to change it you will most likely need to remove the engine cover to get to it. Located on the left side in the direction of travel on the rear of the gearbox. If the turn signals do not work and this fuse is intact, also check relay K5, the turn signal control knob, its connector, as well as the turn signal lamps themselves.

F2 (30 A) - electric windows. If the power windows stop working, check this fuse, as well as relay K2. If the fuse and relay are good, there could be a number of reasons. First, try pressing the power window button and slamming the door. If the mechanism “bites” when the glass is raised, this may help.

Otherwise, you need to disassemble the casing and look at the mechanism. When disassembling, you need to check the serviceability of the gears and all components of the window lifter, including the motor brushes. It could also be a problem with the power window module. It is located in the left rear door; if there is something wrong with it, then most likely you will have to change this module to a working one.

F3 (10 A) - alarm.

If the emergency lights do not work and this fuse is good, check relay K5. If your left or right turn signals come on and are constantly on, even when you turn off the ignition, this is a factory defect. In this case, it is necessary to replace the body electronics control unit. This can be done in official salons.

F4 (20 A) - windshield wiper, heated rear window. If the windshield wipers do not work and this fuse is intact, also check relays K4 and K6. The issue may be in the windshield wiper motor or its mechanism. Check the wiper switch and its connector.

If the rear window heating does not work, check fuse F8, the heater terminals, their contacts, as well as the contacts of this fuse and relay K6. Another issue could be poor contact on the body. The wiring ground is connected to the body under the dashboard. If there is poor or oxidized contact in this area, it can also cause problems with the correct readings on the panel instruments.

F5 (25 A) - heater, electric power steering, windshield washer. If this fuse and relay K4 are intact and the stove does not work, the problem may be in its electric motor (brushes) or the power button, as well as its contacts. If the electric power steering does not work, this fuse and fuse F31 are intact, then it is better to contact a workshop, because it will be difficult to find and fix this malfunction yourself.

F6 (20 A) - sound signal.

If this fuse and relay K8 are working, but the signal does not work, check the horn itself. It is located under the front bumper near the radiator. Sometimes it is enough to turn the tone adjustment screw. The location is inconvenient because water can easily get into it; alternatively, you can reinstall it in a higher place, or install another horn that is less sensitive to water and moisture.

F7 (10A) - LCD dashboard indicator, brake lights, interior lighting. If your brake lights don't work, check this fuse. If it is intact, check the brake light switch, which is located at the base of the brake pedal; it is a round piece with two wires connected to its terminals. If this is the case, then replacing it will help. Costs about 100 rubles. Also check the bulbs in the taillights. If one brake light does not light, then the lamp is most likely burned out. If both signals do not light up, then most likely the problem is in the relay, fuse or switch.

Tips for motorists

Failure of the direction indicators on a VAZ-2118 Lada Kalina passenger car can lead to serious trouble if you continue to drive in traffic with the turn signals not working. In this case, in order to get to the place of their repair, the driver will have to remember how to give turn signals using his left hand, with the side window open.

The most common malfunction of the direction indicators is the burnout of one of the lamps , which will be indicated to the driver by a warning lamp on the instrument panel flashing at double frequency. In this case, the driver will have to get out of the car and see which of the turn signal lamps has burned out. Replacing the turn signal bulbs is not particularly difficult, with the exception of the side bulb, since if there are fender liners, they will have to be removed to get to it.

The turn signal circuit is protected by a 10 amp fuse F1, located in the mounting block to the left of the steering column at the bottom of the front panel. If it fails, the direction indicators will not work. Its burnout is very easy to determine, since this fuse also protects the electrical circuit of the instrument cluster sensors, which means that the instruments on the dashboard will also stop working.

The blinking of the turn signal lamps, with a frequency of once per second, is provided by relay K5 , also located in the mounting block, and if it fails, the turn signal lamps will naturally stop flashing when they are turned on.

The turn signal lamps will not turn on at all if there is a malfunction in the turn signal switch under the steering wheel or if the contacts in the plugs included in this electrical circuit are oxidized. Sometimes there are cases when, when the turn signals are turned on, the lamps do not blink and do not react even when the ignition is turned off. In this case, you will have to change the electronic control unit.

It is no secret that the hazard warning and turn signal circuits are interconnected, because the first and second functions are performed by the same headlights. If the turn signals do not work, but the emergency lights do their job, or both signals ignore the driver’s commands, this can lead to an accident on the road.

Main causes of malfunction

What could be causing the problem? There are several reasons:

• The fuse has blown. The problem is considered the most common. If your car has a relay that switches the hazard warning lights and turn signals, then this could be the reason. Please note that the part can be mounted either in the main fuse box or separately from it - it all depends on the car model. To find the device, use the diagram.
• The light bulb has burned out. This is another reason why turn signals and emergency lights do not work.
• Short circuit in the wiring. When a command to turn on is given, the signals may be confused. For example, the driver activates the hazard warning light and the turn lights are activated, or vice versa. If there is a short circuit, the optics may not react at all to the actions of the car owner. To diagnose a breakdown, you need a tester and basic knowledge of the electrical part.
• Damage to the switch under the steering wheel or button. To identify a malfunction, it is necessary to check the functionality of these devices.
• Open circuit. This breakdown is typical for older cars. If the wires are laid in places where there are moving parts, the wiring may become chafed. As a result, the chain breaks.

How to check the operation of lighting devices with your own hands?

If the turn signals or emergency lights do not work, this is not a reason to despair - all diagnostic work can be done with your own hands. First, determine that the light signals really need to be checked. This is done for a number of reasons:

• There are no turn signals, but the lights are on. This problem indicates a failure of the relay, namely its electromagnetic part. As a rule, a malfunction indicates a short circuit of the electromagnet in one of the positions and the impossibility of returning to its original position.
• The turn signals work, but too slowly or in accelerated mode. With such symptoms, the cause of the malfunction may not be only the relay. As a rule, the problem manifests itself when choosing the wrong light bulbs. When purchasing lighting devices, it is important to check that they correspond to the rating set by the car manufacturer.
• There is no response to the power-on command. In this situation, the turn signals do not work and the indicators on the dashboard do not work. In addition, there are no clicks that should be present when the signals are working. There may be several reasons for the malfunction, and we will talk about them in more detail below.

Connection diagram for hazard warning lights and turns on a VAZ (classic)
The check is carried out as follows:

1. Make sure that the indicators and gauges on the vehicle's dashboard are operating normally. If not, check the fuses for integrity.
2. If all devices are working properly, press the emergency light button and check the light bulbs in each of the headlights. Inspect the front and rear lights, as well as the side lights (if the vehicle has them).
3. If the alarm does not work after issuing the command, check that the relay is working properly and that there is power at the terminals. To do this, remove the relay from its place, and then connect the signal lamp to the contacts - to the “plus” and the car body (or “minus” of the battery). There is no need to turn the key in the ignition. If the indicator lamp does not light, then the probable causes are a breakdown of the alarm button, a breakdown in the electrical circuit, or a burnt-out fuse insert. In addition, the malfunction may lie in poor contact at the connections.
4. If the control light is on, short-circuit the relay terminals using a piece of copper wire. If the remaining elements of the circuit are in good condition, all signals should work. Otherwise, the problem lies in the relay.
5. If after the completed manipulations the lamps do not light up, then the cause of the problem is in the button that turns on the alarm. From operating experience it is known that such a malfunction rarely occurs - more often the problem is caused by a short circuit in the circuit. By the way, it is this malfunction that can cause the relay to fail. To avoid repeated costs, first eliminate the short circuit, and then replace the failed part.

Self-diagnosis of car lighting devices

There are several situations in which you can determine that optics need diagnostics:

1. The turns do not flash, but light up. Such a malfunction indicates the failure of the relay, in particular, we are talking about its electromagnetic component. The electromagnet itself could close in one of the positions, as a result of which it cannot return to its initial state.
2. The turning lights flash very quickly or very slowly. In this case, the problem may lie not only in the relay. In some cases, this type of malfunction occurs when the driver uses inappropriate lighting sources. So when purchasing new light bulbs, you need to make sure that they correspond to the rating set by the car manufacturer.
3. The optics don't work at all. That is, the turning light bulbs do not flicker, and the corresponding indicators on the dashboard also do not light up. In addition, there are no characteristic clicks that appear when turning on the turning lights. With such symptoms, there can be many reasons for the problem; we will tell you more about their diagnosis below (the author of the video is the Steel Horse channel).

As for diagnostics, it is performed in several stages:

1. First of all, you need to make sure that all sensors and indicators on the device are working. If they do not function, then it is necessary to diagnose the safety devices.
2. If all devices are operating in normal mode, then you next need to turn on the light alarm button and diagnose all light sources in the headlights. That is, check the front, rear, and side (if any) lights.
3. If the alarm does not function when activated, you need to check the functionality of the relay, and also check the power supply at the terminals. To do this, remove the relay from its mounting location, and then, using a test light, connect one of its contacts to the installation site (to the positive), and the other to the car body or battery. There is no need to turn on the ignition. If there is no power, then most likely the reason lies in a failed safety device, a broken hazard warning button, or a damaged electrical circuit. Also, the essence of the problem may lie in poor contact in the connecting plugs.
4. If there is a plus on the contacts, then try shorting the two relay terminals using copper wiring. If all electrical circuits, as well as the connection plugs, are working properly, then all turn signals should light up. In this case, the fault must be looked for in the relay.
5. If the lights do not light up after the steps you have performed, then most likely the cause of the malfunction lies in the emergency light control button. However, in practice this happens quite rarely; there is often a short circuit in the circuit. By the way, it is a short circuit that can lead to a breakdown of the relay, therefore, before replacing the failed element, you need to eliminate the short circuit.
6. If the emergency signal is functioning, this indicates that the safety devices and relays are working; accordingly, you need to start diagnosing the button itself. First of all, you need to diagnose the positive terminal, as in the case of checking the relay, while the ignition, as well as the hazard warning button, must be activated. If the diagnostics showed that there is no plus, this indicates that the button itself needs to be checked in more detail. Remove it from its seat and check the connection circuit. If there is no power, then you need to look for a break in the wiring from the tidy to the button itself. If there is power, then it will be necessary to short-circuit the terminals at the installation site, the ignition does not turn off, after which the direction indicators must be activated (on either side). When the lighting sources are turned on, the control button must be replaced, but if there is no power, then you need to check the power in the emergency relay. If there is no power, the problem most likely lies in a break in the connecting electrical circuit from the control key to the block with safety devices.

The video below presents an inexpensive option for repairing the steering column switch in a Peugeot car (the author of the video is the EzjikOnline channel).

It is no secret that the hazard warning and turn signal circuits are interconnected, because the first and second functions are performed by the same headlights.

In a situation where the alarm system is working, we can talk about the serviceability of the relay and the safety element. Therefore, attention should be paid to the button itself. First, check the “positive” terminal, as is the case with a relay. To perform the work, the ignition and hazard warning button must be turned on. Next, draw your conclusions:

• If the diagnostics show that there is no “plus”, check the button. Take it out of its place and make sure the switching circuit is working. If there is no power, look for a break in the wiring between the button and the dashboard.
• If the test result confirms the presence of a “plus”, close the terminals at the installation site (the ignition should remain on). Now activate your turn signals - left or right. If the lights glow normally, change the control button. If there is no power, make sure there is voltage at the alarm relay. If there is no “plus”, the problem, as a rule, lies in the section of the electrical circuit - between the fuse block and the control button.

How to repair hazard warning lights and direction indicators yourself?

If your car's turn signals and hazard warning lights don't work, you don't have to go to a service station—you can do the repairs yourself:

• If a fuse is blown or a relay is broken, replace the faulty parts. If there is a short circuit, check the sections of the circuit where it may have occurred. After fixing the wiring problem, replace the failed elements.
• If the hazard warning button fails, replace it. How to perform diagnostics is discussed above.
• To check the electrical circuit, use a tester. If the diagnostics showed the presence of damaged areas, replace the wires in these places. When laying wiring, avoid its proximity to moving body parts. Also, increase the insulation to improve reliability.

• Is it the light bulbs? Then replace the faulty light sources. To do this work in the front and rear headlights, remove the protection, disconnect the power circuit and unscrew the lamp from the socket. Next, install a new light source. If the light sources installed in the headlights on the sides of the car are faulty, remove the lampshade by prying its edge with a screwdriver. After this, disconnect the power cord and remove the part.
• If the turn signals do not work, the reason may be a failure of the steering column switch. If this is the case, disassemble and check the device. As a rule, failure is explained by poor contact quality or abrasion. In the latter case, replace the switch, and if there are problems with the contacts, clean them (this also applies to buttons).

Types of problems and troubleshooting methods

The turn signal works correctly if the following indicators are met:

• the presence of the ignition on ensures the operating mode;
• moving the steering column switch up and down must be accompanied by turning on the turn signal on the corresponding side;
• The turn signal should flash at a rate of 60 cycles per minute.

Flashing at a certain frequency
Any other behavior of the turn signal indicates a problem. The most common causes of malfunctions include:

Non-blinking turn signal. The problem requires familiarity with the basic principle of relay operation: the current passing through the lamps leads to heating of the measuring resistor - an element that determines whether a particular lamp needs to be turned on. Consequently, the lamp resistance, different from the nominal one, changes the time the turn signal is turned on: it begins to blink. In this situation, it is recommended to lightly tap the relay (this helps if there is a weak connection or moisture). If you have replaced the relay, but the turn signal does not blink, but is constantly on, then there is poor contact with the fuse block. Replacing a fuse that was found to have a resistance value that does not correspond to the nominal value can also help.

Read more about electromagnetic-thermal relays

Such a relay is designed to be simple and reliable, although it is not without its shortcomings. Owners of some particularly old VAZ cars changed it at most once or twice. It's all about the reliable design of the relay, which is a kind of metamorphosis of devices used in industrial installations. The key elements of such a relay are the following:

• A cylindrical core having a winding of particularly thin copper wire;
• Two contact groups at the top of the core;
• Metal anchors on the sides;
• Metal body.

There are two contact groups, and the first is responsible for closing the circuit of the car turn signal indicator light on the dashboard, and the second group is directly responsible for the circuit of the turn signal light bulbs. In normal condition, the direction indicator circuit is normally open, because the anchor of the contact group is pulled off with a nichrome thread. The thread is fixed on an insulating material, from which the platform for installing the core is also made. There is a current in the same thread - it is connected to the pointer switch circuit.

An electromagnetic-thermal relay operates on a fairly simple principle. As soon as the signal to enter a turn is received, the circuit is closed. The circuit includes turn signal bulbs, a relay winding, a resistor and a nichrome thread. A resistor is needed to reduce the current. As soon as the material (nichrome) begins to heat up, the thread made from it begins to stretch. Since the anchor is pulled by a thread that gradually increases in length, it will be able to close the contact group after some time. Now the current begins to bypass both the nichrome thread and the resistor - it simply begins to “flow” bypassing areas with high resistance. This means that the direction indicator lamps begin to burn not at half-glow, but at full strength. It is important to note here that nichrome thread heats up and cools down very quickly. Due to this feature, the lamps can flash 60-120 times per minute . As the reader probably guessed, the opening of the contacts is due to the fact that the thread has time to quickly cool and pull the armature away from the core. When a signal is given, everything repeats.

Fuses and relays in Lada Kalina, electrical diagrams

If one or another electrical device in your Kalina has stopped working - headlights, low or high beams, cigarette lighter, stove, turn signals, as well as other devices, then the first thing you need to do is find the cause of the malfunction, in particular, check the fuses and relays in the Lada Kalina.

The first thing to check in electrical circuits is the fuses, because they are the weakest point of the circuit and are usually the first to fail. Read on to learn about which fuses do what in the Lada Kalina, as well as where the relays are located and how to find the right one.

If you do not want to get into an unpleasant situation when, due to a blown fuse, one or another device refuses to work, but you don’t have a whole one at hand, it is useful to make it a rule to always carry with you a set consisting of different fuses.

For the Lada Kalina, you can buy a similar set at any auto store that sells auto parts for domestic cars. It takes up very little space, but its benefits in case of failure will significantly reduce your time to fix the problem.

Power fuses

The main power fuses and the diagnostic connector are located under the cover next to the cigarette lighter.

I hope this article will help solve your electrical problem. Just in case, take with you spare fuses and, if possible, relays, then you won’t have to look for them at the most inopportune moment or during auto shop hours.

You can also read about Lada Granta fuses, if you have such a model in your fleet.

If you have any questions about electrical or history, you can write them in the comments.

The hazard warning button also affects the turn signals. it was so

The hazard warning button also affects the turn signals. it was so

My connector came off from the turn switch (which is on the steering wheel). Try to stick it in.

it seems that if the horn is buzzing, then it has nothing to do with it.

People, help. I went to work in the morning, everything worked perfectly, all lane changes, turns - the turn signals were blinking normally, I took a turn into the parking lot at work - it didn’t work, not left, not right, the emergency lights were fine, what to look at. I think it’s the paddle shifters or some kind of contact, but I want to know specifically. For about a minute, before turning to work, I skidded off the brakes from :*%?%, who considered himself the king of the road and simply rushed across me without showing a turn signal :ooo:

I have a similar problem and can't figure it out. When you turn on the turn signals, the bottom of the panel (high carb) the lights begin to blink (suction, oil pressure, etc.) and the radio flickers. But when you turn on the emergency lights, there is no such thing. Where to dig.

Moderators, please delete the repetitions, there are problems with the gateway on the site, so it was updated

This applies to the VAZ 2115; for other cars the check will be slightly different.

I also had a problem with turn signals. The hazard lights work, but the turns do not. I went to the service. At first they said the relay, but I changed it, then they said that the fuse in the emergency lamp had blown, but it was new. Then they removed the CY and said that the diode bridge under the relay had burned out, but this also confused me and I told them to dig further. As a result, when they screwed the crank back in, they began to pull the wiring that goes from the crank to the steering wheel and VOILA, everything worked!

Then the problem repeated itself again when I was doing something in the torpedo. The solution was the following: I pulled the wires and everything worked.

Turn signals are dim

• Check the lamps for correct wattages and models.
• Clean the ground on the turn signals.

Checking the serviceability of the turn relay

And so let’s look at what to do if the turns of a front-wheel drive VAZ, except for the 2170 Priora, do not work. The operation and troubleshooting of which was discussed in the article “Prior Turning Relay”.

First, make sure that the measuring instruments and control lamps on the instrument panel are working. If they do not work, then check the fuse.

If the devices are working properly, turn on the hazard warning button and check that all the lamps in the direction indicators are blinking. This will allow you to divide the circuit into two parts and speed up troubleshooting.

If the alarm does not work when turned on, then it is necessary to check the serviceability of the turn and alarm relay and the presence of power at its terminal 49. The pin designation is marked on the bottom of the relay, next to the contact legs.

We remove the relay, which is marked in the form of a triangle on the top of the case, from the mounting block, and in the vacated socket, using a test paw, check for the presence of a plus on pin 49. We connect the test lamp to the ground or minus of the battery, and with the other end we touch pin 49, when If the hazard warning button is on, you do not need to turn on the ignition. Lack of power indicates a faulty fuse, alarm button or broken wires, contact tracks of the mounting block and poor contact in the connectors.

If there is a plus on the terminal, then connect terminals 49 and 49A with a copper wire. If the connecting wires and connectors are in good condition, all the direction indicator lamps should light up. This indicates that the turn signal and light signaling relay is faulty. If the lamps do not light up, but there is a plus on pin 49, then there may be a short circuit in the signal lamp circuit and the fuse has blown. A short circuit can also cause the relay to fail. In this case, check the serviceability of the fuse, and if it blows, eliminate the short circuit in the signal lamp circuit.

Checking the hazard warning button.

If the hazard warning lights are working, then the turn signal and hazard warning relays are working properly, but the fault may be in the hazard warning light button. First, check the plus, as described earlier at pin 49 of the relay, with the hazard warning button off and the ignition on.

If there is no plus, then you need to check the serviceability of the alarm button. To do this, you need to remove the button from the socket by prying it off with a thin screwdriver or remove the instrument panel visor. In the contact connector of the button, use a test lamp to check the presence of power at pin 2 (the numbering of pins on the button near the contacts) with the ignition on. If there is no power, repair the broken wire from the instrument panel to the button. If there is power, connect pin 2 to pin 5 in the button socket, with the ignition on, and turn on the direction indicators of either side. If the warning lights on this board light up, replace the faulty hazard warning button.

If the warning lights do not light up, then, without removing the jumper from the hazard warning button block, connect pins 49 and 49A with a copper wire in the relay socket, then check the power at pin 49A of the turn switch. To do this, remove the steering column cover and the connecting connector from the turn switch. You can also remove the switch itself to determine the pin numbers that are marked on its lower part next to the contact legs. This is not difficult to do by squeezing the latches on the sides of the switch and pulling it to the side. If the circuit from the relay to the switch is in good condition, the indicator lamp will start to light. If the control lamp does not light, then repair the break in the wire from the mounting block to the turn signal connector.

Tips for motorists

Failure of the direction indicators on a VAZ-2118 Lada Kalina passenger car can lead to serious trouble if you continue to drive in traffic with the turn signals not working. In this case, in order to get to the place of their repair, the driver will have to remember how to give turn signals using his left hand, with the side window open.

The most common malfunction of the direction indicators is the burnout of one of the lamps , which will be indicated to the driver by a warning lamp on the instrument panel flashing at double frequency. In this case, the driver will have to get out of the car and see which of the turn signal lamps has burned out. Replacing the turn signal bulbs is not particularly difficult, with the exception of the side bulb, since if there are fender liners, they will have to be removed to get to it.

The turn signal circuit is protected by a 10 amp fuse F1, located in the mounting block to the left of the steering column at the bottom of the front panel. If it fails, the direction indicators will not work. Its burnout is very easy to determine, since this fuse also protects the electrical circuit of the instrument cluster sensors, which means that the instruments on the dashboard will also stop working.

The blinking of the turn signal lamps, with a frequency of once per second, is provided by relay K5 , also located in the mounting block, and if it fails, the turn signal lamps will naturally stop flashing when they are turned on.

The turn signal lamps will not turn on at all if there is a malfunction in the turn signal switch under the steering wheel or if the contacts in the plugs included in this electrical circuit are oxidized. Sometimes there are cases when, when the turn signals are turned on, the lamps do not blink and do not react even when the ignition is turned off. In this case, you will have to change the electronic control unit.

Fuse diagram Lada Kalina 2

The table shows a set of fuses for the maximum configuration of the “luxury” version (depending on the set of options, individual fuses from this set may not be used in the “Normal” configuration).

Relay location

The relays are in the same block as the fuses.

K1 - headlight washer. If the washers stop working and this relay is working properly, check their nozzles. Sometimes they become clogged or damaged.

K2 - electric windows. Check this relay together with fuse F2. See F2 for troubleshooting.

Short circuit - starter relay. If you turn the ignition key and the starter does not turn, it may be the relay. Check its contacts and clean them if necessary. Next, you need to check the battery terminals so that there is reliable contact between them, and if necessary, clean them. Also check the contact group of the ignition switch, there may be no contact there.

K4 - additional relay, heated rear window, heater switch, wiper and washer switch.

K5 - relay-breaker for turn signals and hazard warning lights. If the direction indicators or hazard lights do not work, check this relay together with fuses F1 and F3.

K6 - windshield wiper relay. Check together with fuse F4.

K7 - high beam relay. Check together with fuses F14 and F15.

K8 - sound signal. Check together with fuse F6.

K9 - fog lights. Check together with fuses F16 and F17.

K10 - heated rear window. Also check relay K4 and fuses F4 and F8.

K11 - heated seats. Also check fuse F18.

K12 - reserve.

Signs of malfunction of the Kalina turn signal relay

A problem arose, I bought the car that week, there was a glitch with the turn signal relay, the turn signals are on and not flashing as expected, well, I think the relay was broken, I bought a new one the next day it was blocked again or stuck, in short, it doesn’t bother me, it just lights up and doesn’t flash, and so on 5 times already, I called When I went to the salon where I bought it, they told me “the relay is so crap, look for the relay where the numbers on the relay are written in paint.” Tell me what kind of crap it is, where to dig, is it really what they say.

Added after 1 hour 23 minutes 41 seconds:

Added after 51 seconds:

It has already been written that the relay often sticks after turning off and jumping the switch lever to the opposite side.

The original relay has been stuck since the day I bought the car. It was treated using the method: take it out and knock. I bought the same thing at a spare parts store because... there was no other. As a result, it lived for two weeks and stuck tightly.

Dear, this is the one on which the marking is painted in the form of the letter G in a circle, and the circle in the letter C. 79.3777 I took the relay apart and realized what the joke was. The fact is that under the USSR they did not spare precious metals for electronics, neither thick layer of gold, nor platinum, nor palladium, nor tantalum. Silver was not considered a precious metal at all. Relays with silver rivets are still not in demand. And in this relay, the contact is just two copper plates with a stamped tubercle. Flimsy. No silver, no silver plating... but just lubricate it with electrical contact lubricant, it would have lived longer.

As I see it, the malfunction algorithm is as follows: Turn on the turn signal, go through a turn, the turn signal lever snaps off and jumps to the opposite side, momentarily lighting the opposite turn signals. In the relay at this time, the contact opens for a fraction of a second, moves away a fraction of a millimeter, a small arc jumps through, and immediately turns on again, already sticking. Of course, this does not always happen, it all depends on the interval between switching on. And just over time, the copper burns, and the relay begins to stick.

Do-it-yourself repair of direction indicators and hazard alarms

If the turns disappear, as well as the car’s emergency signal, then you can try to solve this problem yourself:

If the safety element and relay break down, the failed parts must be replaced. If the reason lies in a short circuit, then before replacing it is necessary to check all electrical circuits in which it could occur. Only after the cause of the short circuit and power surges has been eliminated, the devices need to be changed. If the hazard warning button is faulty, you just need to replace it. We have already talked about how to diagnose this part. As for electrical circuit diagnostics, it is carried out using a tester. If damaged sections of the wire are identified, they must be replaced. When laying them, make sure that the wiring does not come into contact with moving body elements. It is also recommended to additionally insulate new wires to increase the reliability of the insulation. If the reason is the light bulbs, then all burnt out light sources must be replaced. In the front and rear headlights, the lamps are changed by removing the protection from the headlights, disconnecting the power circuit from the lamp, as well as unscrewing the light source from the seat and replacing it with a new one. If the lamps in the side headlights do not work, then, as a rule, to dismantle the lighting sources, the lamp itself must be pryed off with a screwdriver, then disconnect the power cord and remove the device. If the reason lies in the steering column switch, then this device needs to be disassembled and checked. As a rule, the cause of switch failure is poor contact or abrasion. In this case, the failed switch is replaced with a new one.

As for the contacts (no matter where - on connections or buttons), it is advisable to clean them. You should also check all the plugs and connectors, because it is quite possible that the problem is poor contact on them. Acidified contacts must be cleaned with a wire brush or sandpaper

If the contacts are burnt out, they will need to be replaced.

Reasons for failure of turn signals and emergency lights

As you know, the circuit of direction indicators and hazard warning lights is tied, since both functions are performed by the same headlights. If for some reason the hazard lights are working, but the turn signals are not, or neither the turns nor the warning lights are on, this can lead to an emergency situation on the road.

For what reasons did these elements stop working:

1. Fuse failure is one of the most common problems. If the car is additionally equipped with a relay that is responsible for the operation of these optical elements, then the problem may lie there. Depending on the car model, the relay may be located separately from the main fuse block; use the diagram to find the failed part.
2. Short circuit in the system. Because of this, when turning on the turning lights, the emergency lights turn on or the optics do not respond to the driver’s commands at all. To diagnose the problem, you will need a tester, as well as the skills of an electrician.
3. Failure of the lighting source. In other words, the light bulb has burned out.
4. Open circuit. This problem is relevant for many car owners of older cars. If the wires are laid in a place where there are moving elements, then over time it will fray and lose its insulation, which will generally lead to damage to the electrical circuit.
5. Failure of a button or steering column switch. In this case, it is necessary to carry out more thorough diagnostics of the switch, as well as the connection button.

What can you do if the left turn signal does not work?

When the lights are working properly:

• the ignition is on, which means the turn signals are in operating mode;
• the driver switches the steering column lever up or down, the left or right turn signal lights up;
• The warning turn signal flashes at a frequency of 60 times per minute.

The left and right light indicator on your car does not work as described above? This indicates a malfunction. What kind of damage can happen?

• Turn signal doesn't blink
  You can fix the problem by studying the principles by which the relay operates. Due to the electric current passing through the light bulbs, the measuring resistor heats up. It determines whether the turn signal lamp needs to be turned on. That is, if the resistance of the light bulb differs from the nominal one, the turn signal on time will change: the light indicator will blink.

  How to eliminate the breakdown? Gently tap the relay. When the contact is weak or moisture has gotten inside, these actions will help. Does the light stay on and stay on even after a new relay has been installed? This means that the contact with the safety block is weak. Solution - change the fuse; the resistance value should not differ from the nominal one.

• One turn signal doesn't work
  Is the right or left turn signal not working? This means the relay is working properly. Otherwise, both turn signals would break: both the left and the right.

  The most common reason is that the bulb in one light indicator has burned out. There may also be a problem with the wiring or socket.

  When purchasing a new light bulb, remember that it doesn't just have to fit into the turn signal socket. Its power should be the same as what is written on the lampshade.

  Have you changed a light bulb, but the left turn signal doesn't work? Perhaps the reason is in the cartridge. It may oxidize. In this case, clean the oxidation with a file or sandpaper.

  Another reason for the malfunction is that the light bulb sits too tightly on the contacts. They need to be bent using thin-nose pliers. This operation must be performed carefully, otherwise the contacts may be shorted. As a result, you will receive the following malfunction: the light indicators will work in a checkerboard pattern. Is the cartridge ok? Most likely the wiring is faulty. Check to see if the wire is firmly soldered to the socket. The shorting of wires to each other or to ground on the iron body of the car must be excluded.

• The hazard lights do not blink.
  The cause of this breakdown is the relay. You'll have to install a new one. Also, the turn signal may be faulty due to a broken switch. You will have to disassemble the steering column shift lever. The turn signals work, but the hazard lights don't come on? Install a new alarm system button.
• The turn signal is not bright enough.
  Is the turn signal dim? Most likely, the model and power of the light bulb are not suitable. The problem can also be solved by cleaning the contacts of the light bulbs.
• Turn signal relay clicks
  This also applies to malfunction. The problem is that the mounting block relay contacts are not OK. Extraneous sounds appear when the contact fits too tightly or it has oxidized. The cause may also be a faulty relay. The solution is to replace the relay or clean the contacts.

  Does the left turn signal not work on either the front or rear of the car? This means the steering column switch is faulty. Also, the contact may be lost, or the relay may become completely unusable.

  The turn signal electrical circuit is protected by an eight-amp fuse; it is located in the mounting block. If it breaks, the left or right turn signal will not work. Only thanks to the hazard warning light system can you move safely. This means that you should always have light bulbs of suitable power in reserve.

Reverse sensor malfunction

This is not a serious fault, its repair can be systematically postponed, but it should still be carried out. The light indicating reverse gear is not required for driving, although it is necessary to communicate your intentions to other drivers.

Sometimes it happens that the lamps do not activate, although the reverse gear is engaged. In some cases, only one of the lamps does not light up. If one lamp does not work, then that is the reason. You can easily replace it yourself without visiting a service center. When two lamps fail at the same time, this requires checking the electrical circuit coming from the sensor.

Due to their location, patch cables are prone to frequent breaks.

Replacing the sensor requires experience:

• First you need to disconnect the wires.
• Unscrew the reverse switch and screw in a new one. This must be done quickly, otherwise a lot of oil will leak out.
• You can simply place a clean container under the crankcase to collect the oil. Then you need to fill it back.

Apart from the need to have this sensor in perfect working order, in practice it can provide invaluable assistance when performing a complex maneuver on the road. This is especially important if lighting conditions are poor.

The repair will be easy, especially if it involves replacing a fuse or lamp. If the fault comes from the gear switch - the least common - the repair is somewhat more difficult.

Replacing the lamp

Access to the light bulb is usually easy and in some vehicles this is explained in the manual itself. Simply remove the outer casing and start loosening the screws.

The next step is to remove the lamp from the socket. To do this, simply twist the lamp and let the metal part slide down the lamp holder guides.

As soon as the bulb is removed from the socket, it will be possible to see signs that the lamp needs to be replaced.

After replacing the lamp, you need to check its functionality. To do this, you need to turn the key, turn on the ignition and engage reverse. In this case, the new light bulb should light up.

Checking and replacing the fuse

After replacing the lamp, it still does not work, the problem is probably in the fuse. To fix it, you need to again use the car's owner's manual, which will help you determine the correct fuse.

If the lamp is damaged, a peak current may occur that will blow the fuse protecting that part of the electrical installation.

The fuse must always be replaced with another fuse of similar amperage and under no circumstances should another fuse be used.

Due to the ease with which this procedure can be performed, it can be done before replacing the lamp.

Do-it-yourself repair of direction indicators and hazard alarms

If the turns disappear, as well as the car’s emergency signal, then you can try to solve this problem yourself:

If the safety element and relay break down, the failed parts must be replaced. If the reason lies in a short circuit, then before replacing it is necessary to check all electrical circuits in which it could occur. Only after the cause of the short circuit and power surges has been eliminated, the devices need to be changed. If the hazard warning button is faulty, you just need to replace it.

If the reason lies in the steering column switch, then this device needs to be disassembled and checked. As a rule, the cause of switch failure is poor contact or abrasion. In this case, the failed switch is replaced with a new one.

As for the contacts (no matter where - on connections or buttons), it is advisable to clean them. You should also check all the plugs and connectors, because it is quite possible that the problem is poor contact on them. Acidified contacts must be cleaned with a wire brush or sandpaper

If the contacts are burnt out, they will need to be replaced.

A little about the functions of the turn relay

The turn relay has several names. This is a current breaker, a turn signal breaker relay, and just a turn signal relay. In all cases, we are talking about an electronic or electromagnetic-thermal device responsible for closing and opening the light indicator circuits. During their operation, the light signal is either generated or extinguished before the vehicle enters the turn and during its implementation. From here we can distinguish 4 functions of breakers:

1. Creation of the already mentioned intermittent light signal of indicators on one of the sides of the car before and during the maneuver;
2. Creating an intermittent signal from a warning lamp located on the dashboard of a car;
3. Generation of intermittent signals from absolutely all indicators with which the vehicle is equipped when the hazard warning lights are turned on;
4. Formation of a similarly intermittent, but already audible signal - clicks - designed to help the driver navigate the operation of the devices without direct visual contact with the dashboard.

To fully understand the operation of relay interrupters, it is worth considering both modern devices and their predecessors. As for the latter, let's take electromagnetic-thermal relays, which were installed on classic VAZ cars. More modern electronic breakers are found on all modern cars, so there is no point in taking a specific device from a specific car model as an example.

List of contact relays

If we open the main fuse box of Kalina 2, we will see a set of electrical relay housings. There are no other blocks containing relays in the car. We list the elements used in the “Lux” package (21927/21947):

• K1: radiator fan relay;
• K2: relay switching on door locks;
• K3: additional starter relay;
• K4: additional relay (switches current 50A);
• K6: wiper relay;
• K7: relay that turns on the high beam;
• K8: signal relay;
• K9: relay that turns on the low beam;
• K10: rear window heater relay;
• K11: main ignition relay;
• K12: relay turning on the fuel pump;
• K13: additional relay;
• K14: radiator fan relay 3;
• K15: windshield heater relay 1;
• K16: windshield heater relay 2;
• K17: relay that turns on the air conditioning compressor.

You can compare the layout of elements in “Lux” and in “Norm/Standard”:

Let's consider the data relevant for the “Normal/Standard” configurations:

• K1-K12: as above;
• K13: radiator fan relay 3;
• K14: windshield heater relay 1;
• K15: windshield heater relay 2;
• K16: air conditioning compressor relay.

The last list is also relevant for Kalina Cross Norma. And in more expensive trim levels of the crossover, the “Lux” scheme will probably be used.

Video about the reasons why turn signals do not work on Kalina

During the operation of the car, the driver encounters various malfunctions. In certain cases, it is recommended to contact a service center to eliminate them; in others, for example, you can deal with the breakdown of the emergency lights and turn signals of the Lada Kalina 2 yourself.

Procedure in case of malfunction of the direction indicators:

1. Check to see if the turn signal lamps are burnt out.
2. Check the “ground” and “power” on the turn signal connector using a multimeter or a +12V test lamp.
3. Check the operation of the emergency stop button and clean the contacts.
4. Check the integrity of the wiring using the Lada Kalina 2 electrical diagrams.
5. The Lada Kalina 2 mounting block does not have a relay or fuse for turn signals; the central body electronics unit (CBEC) is responsible for its operation. To check it, you should contact the service.

Let us remind you that the website has other instructions for operating and repairing the Lada Kalina 2.

Fuses and relays in Lada Kalina, electrical diagrams

If one or another electrical device in your Kalina has stopped working - headlights, low or high beams, cigarette lighter, stove, turn signals, as well as other devices, then the first thing you need to do is find the cause of the malfunction, in particular, check the fuses and relays in the Lada Kalina.

The first thing to check in electrical circuits is the fuses, because they are the weakest point of the circuit and are usually the first to fail. Read on to learn about which fuses do what in the Lada Kalina, as well as where the relays are located and how to find the right one.

If you do not want to get into an unpleasant situation when, due to a blown fuse, one or another device refuses to work, but you don’t have a whole one at hand, it is useful to make it a rule to always carry with you a set consisting of different fuses.

For the Lada Kalina, you can buy a similar set at any auto store that sells auto parts for domestic cars. It takes up very little space, but its benefits in case of failure will significantly reduce your time to fix the problem.

Power fuses

The main power fuses and the diagnostic connector are located under the cover next to the cigarette lighter.

I hope this article will help solve your electrical problem. Just in case, take with you spare fuses and, if possible, relays, then you won’t have to look for them at the most inopportune moment or during auto shop hours.

You can also read about Lada Granta fuses, if you have such a model in your fleet.
