VAZ 2106 turn signals do not work, emergency lights work

Turn signals of VAZ 2107 do not work

Dear auto mechanics! I need your help. The turn signals of the VAZ 2107 do not work. The emergency lights also do not work. The car was on the emergency light for about an hour, after which suddenly everything went out. Nothing works, not even the light bulb reacts. What is there to blame, what could be the problem? I would be grateful for any answers.

Initially, you need to check the fuse and relay, do not forget about the emergency button. It would not be superfluous to check the functionality of the steering column switches. Generally speaking, look for damage in these places

I checked, everything is fine. As far as I know, the fuse for the hazard lights and turn signals are different. If one of them had burned out, I would have noticed it immediately. Because if the turn signal fuse blew, the dashboard would most likely also go out!!

Then look at the button itself, often when the hazard lights and turn signal do not work at the same time, it is the button that is to blame

Thanks to all! Replaced the relay and now everything works.

Driving without turn signals is inconvenient and, most importantly, dangerous. After all, you can easily provoke a traffic accident. Therefore, such a problem must be solved as soon as possible. So, what could cause a breakdown in your car? For several reasons, the turn signals in the VAZ-2107 and the emergency signal may stop working:

1. The most common and common cause is a blown fuse or simply loss of contacts.
2. The contact blocks could be damaged, if this is exactly what happened, then one of the rotating sides will not work. Pull out and then reinsert all the pads, often such manipulations have a positive effect
3. The turn signals may not work due to the failure of the steering column switch. Check its integrity and functionality
4. Another common cause is relay failure

In your situation, judging by the problem described, there are no problems with the fuse, and the steering column switch is in order (but not a fact). It is imperative to check the relay and, if necessary, replace it with a new one.

Turn signals on VAZ 2107 do not work: replacing the relay

• The turn signals are on, but not flickering as expected.
• Flickering is too slow or fast
• Turn signals and hazard lights don't work at all (your case)

I recommend that you replace this particular mechanism; it doesn’t cost that much, and the work can be done in literally 20-30 minutes. Provide yourself with access to the mounting block, find the relay there, it looks like this:

Then pry and tighten it using available tools. Unscrew the ground from the breaker and install a new mechanism in place of the old relay and connect all the wires going to it. Then assemble all previously disassembled elements in reverse order. As you can see, nothing complicated. The main thing in all work is to correctly connect the terminal to the “plus” and “minus”. I see exactly this way to solve your problem. Good luck.

Frequent malfunctions of turn signals and emergency lights, and how to fix them

If the turning lights stop working, you need to carry out diagnostics and try to eliminate the identified faults. When you can’t do it yourself, you should contact a car service.

Turn switch

To identify such a breakdown, check the functionality of the contacts when the switch is in different positions. Inspect plastic or metal elements. In this case, melting or carbon deposits may appear. Then the relay clicks, but neither the right nor left turning mechanisms work.

To eliminate the breakdown, the switch is removed and disassembled. After cleaning the contacts, the part is assembled in the reverse order. A photo taken in advance will make the job easier.

Turns relay

A faulty element requires immediate repair. The part is inexpensive, so they buy 2 pieces in reserve. The relay is located in the fuse box in the engine compartment or inside the passenger compartment. The operating instructions help determine the location of the part you are looking for. The mounting block contains an image describing the purpose of the switches and relays.

Faulty lamp blade wiring

Finding the location of the wiring break is made difficult by the fact that the turn signals are connected to the rear parking lights. The cables run throughout the entire cabin, and the lamps are installed on the tailgate.

Most often, electrical wiring is damaged in the following places:

• under the thresholds in the area of ​​the front passenger and driver's seats;
• in the adapter that supplies wiring to the trunk lid;
• in the headlight sockets.

If the left or right turn signal is faulty, you should check the contacts of the light bulbs with a multimeter. If voltage is present, tighten the lamellas of the socket into which the base is inserted. Modern manufacturers supply cars with LED elements.

Despite their long service life individually, when assembled in a line they often burn out. The problem is solved by replacing the design component.

Hazard switch

If this part breaks, the lamps start on both sides simultaneously. On some cars, the rotary control relay is located in the hazard warning light switch. A new button is inexpensive, so it is recommended not to repair it, but to replace it.

Malfunction or software failure of the body control unit

In some models, such as the Lada Priora, the functions of switching the indicators in question are transferred to the body control unit. The advantage is the possibility of centralized control, the disadvantage is the complication of auto repair. To eliminate the breakdown, disassembling the unit is required. Such repairs are performed only in a car service center.

Do-it-yourself diagnostics

In a situation where the emergency lights and (or) turn signals do not work, it is advisable to immediately begin troubleshooting. Checking all possible causes is quite simple, and therefore nothing prevents you from doing everything yourself. Accurate identification of symptoms will help you with this. Let's look at the most common ones.

The turn signal does not work, but the lights work. All this clearly indicates a faulty relay. Moreover, it immediately becomes clear that the problem arose due to the failure of its electromagnetic component. Most likely, a short circuit occurred, which led to the immobilization of the anchor.

The next option is that the turn signals on the VAZ-2114 work quite well, but they either blink very slowly or, on the contrary, at an excessively high speed. And this symptom indicates that the relay is not functioning properly, but the root cause is most likely the lamps. If you have recently changed them, then take a look at them. Most likely, the denomination does not correspond to the required one.

Moving the lever does nothing. Here, not only the turn signals themselves (hazard warning lights) do not want to work, but sometimes the dashboard display responsible for them also stops lighting up. An additional symptom is the absence of clicks indicating that the function in question is enabled. There are several reasons:

• control element failure;
• open circuit;
• fuse failure.

Removal and Replacement Guide

Changing fuses yourself

Before you begin replacing the safety devices located in the main unit, you must turn off the ignition and battery terminals under the hood.

The replacement procedure is carried out as follows:

1. Find the installation location of the device. There are latches on the plastic cover of the block; press them. After removing the cover, you will be able to see a diagram printed on the reverse side, which indicates the location and purpose of all used elements.
2. Then you need to identify which device has failed and needs to be replaced. Sometimes a breakdown can be determined visually - the component itself may be burnt out, sometimes a broken thread is clearly visible in it.
3. Under the cover of the device you will see tweezers, which can be used to remove the device. If you don't have tweezers, you can use pliers.
4. Remove the burnt out element and replace it with a new one, then replace the cover and connect the battery terminals (video filmed and published by the AVTOCLUB_22 channel).

Replacing fog lamp fuses

If the fog optics break down, you should first diagnose the operation of the device. The component is located inside the car.

To check and replace, follow these steps:

1. First you will need a Phillips screwdriver, use it to remove the two switches located in the middle of the console, near the audio system.
2. Using a screwdriver, you will need to press out two fasteners.
3. Then remove the plastic insert.
4. You can now remove the fuse housing. Remove the protective cover of the device and replace the part with a new one.

What to do if charging is lost?

If the vehicle is equipped with a G-222 generator device and the generator has lost charging, it is necessary to diagnose the connections in the fuse box. The test is performed using a tester. Below is a list of connections that are subject to diagnostics:

• Sh4-1 - Sh11-4;
• Ш1-6 - safety device number 9 - Ш11-3, most often the reason lies in the rupture of this connection;
• Ш1-4 - Ш10-1;
• Sh5-3 - Sh10-7;
• Ш1-6 - safety element number 10 - Ш4-1.

If the machine is equipped with a 37.3701 generator device, then only the last three circuits are diagnosed:

• Ш1 — brown connector, located on the power supply unit on the interior side;
• Ш4 - blue connector, also located in the cabin;
• Ш5 — yellow connector, in the passenger compartment;
• Ш10 — brown connector, located in the engine compartment;
• Ш11 - yellow connector in the engine compartment.

Turn signals on VAZ do not work

During the operation of the vehicle, malfunctions associated with electrical equipment may appear. One of these troubles is the failure of the turn signal system, usually associated with the indicator relay. We will try to look at what the turn signal system consists of, the most common faults and answer the question of what to do if the turn signals do not work.

Turn signals are a key part of road safety.

Their use lets drivers know your intentions so they can make appropriate decisions and maneuver wisely. The first turn signals appeared in the form of special arrows, activated by a special mechanism and indicating the direction of movement of the car. After that, the system was improved and instead of primitive signs and indicators, the first lamps appeared, which made the driver’s work easier and distracted him less from driving. Those turn signals that we are used to seeing appeared in the 30s of the last century and were used in the form of special lamps located on the wings or bumper of a car. Over time, this has become an essential component of any car and its serviceability must be fully maintained.

Direction indicator connection diagram

Before talking about turn signal malfunctions, you need to know what the turn signal circuit consists of. It includes light bulbs, turn signal relay, switch, fuse and hazard warning button.

A relay is a switching element in an electrical circuit. It is this that ensures that the lamps are switched on and off briefly while the turn signals are operating. The relay receives information about the closure of the circuit of one side or another of the indicators from the turn switch and the hazard warning button.

Accordingly, it closes the desired circuit and ensures the operation of specific light bulbs. The location of the relay may vary. On new cars it is placed in the mounting block, and, for example, on Zhiguli cars it is installed behind the instrument panel. There it is secured with a special ring screwed to the car body with a nut. This ring acts as a “mass” and must always be cleaned. Also, the turn signal relay can be attached to the side member of the car.

Lamps are the main element and play the role of that very pointer. The switching on of the lamps is ensured by the direction of the signals coming out of the relay. The connection diagram of the lamps is ensured in such a way that even if one of them burns out, this will not affect the operation of the others.

The turn signal switch is located on the steering column of the car and serves as a control device for the driver. Using the switch, you can set the direction in which the direction indicators are turned on.

Hazard warning button - ensures that all the lights included in the turn signals are turned on. At the contact group of the button, all wires are connected, including the ignition switch wires.

All elements of the circuit are connected using electrical wiring and the car body (or in popular parlance - “grounds”).

The fuse is designed to protect the circuit from short circuits. This can happen if you accidentally short-circuit the wires that are part of the circuit or because their insulation is insufficient. The fuse has a fuse link, which, when the current in the circuit increases (accompanied by an increase in the temperature of the conductors), breaks the electrical circuit and protects the circuit from fire.

The nature of malfunctions of VAZ turn signals

Knowing all the components of the circuit, you can begin troubleshooting. To begin with, it is worth understanding that if the turn signals suddenly stop working, first of all, check the corresponding fuse. To find out where it is located, look at its cover (usually there are symbols located there) or find the symbol in the technical literature of the car. Before carrying out repair and diagnostic work, be sure to disconnect the negative terminal of the battery.

Dimensions in turn signals using a relay

You can set the front turn lamps to work in headlight mode without losing their function. To do this, install a pair of relays that will break the power supply circuit for the lamps when the turn signal is turned on. Thus, when you turn on the headlights, the turn signal lamps will simply light up, and if you turn on the turn signal, they will blink in antiphase with the rear turns (when voltage is applied, the rear lamps light up, and the front lamps go out due to the opening of the relay contacts). This solution has one problem - the turn lamps will not light up if the side lights are turned off. To solve the problem, you need to add a couple more relays that will switch the power to the turn signal lamps to the standard circuit when the side lights turn off.

The disadvantage of this method is that it reduces the reliability of light signals due to an increase in the number of contact groups in the power circuit. To increase reliability and reduce the number of wires and contacts, you can use semiconductor circuits for turning on turn lamps. It is very difficult to assemble such a circuit on your own without special knowledge and experience. Therefore, it is better to purchase a new one or ask for help from a specialist. Now you know how to make dimensions in the turn signals of a VAZ 2114. Whether you put this knowledge into practice and whether you experience difficulties when passing a technical inspection or when meeting with the traffic police is up to you.

Many people want to improve their front optics, because with good light, driving is much more comfortable and safer for you, as long as your light does not interfere with oncoming drivers. There are many ways to do this. But some people want to get a unique and unusual look by tuning their headlights. To do this, for example, they install additional dimensions in the turn signals or completely transfer them there, creating the so-called American style.

American cars on the VAZ 2114 are a very common practice, with them the car really looks more interesting, besides, in the dark, any additional light will not hurt. In poor visibility, a car with such tuning is more noticeable on the road. But you need to understand that such a change can mislead other road users and sometimes cause accidents.

The yellow lights merge with the turn signals, and some road users may misjudge the situation. Therefore, it is better to use white dimensions, then the orange turn signals will stand out clearly.

When making an American VAZ 2114, everything must be done within the law; there are clear restrictions on any changes to the front optics. For example, you definitely cannot install red lamps, reflectors and any other devices with inappropriate color and operating mode. For such violations, a fine of 2,500 rubles was imposed.

Purpose of the device

Initially, it should be noted that turns operate differently than other lights on a car. They operate in intermittent mode, which is ensured by a product such as the VAZ-2107 turn relay (breaker).

It should also be noted that in addition to intermittent operation, the turn relays emit audible signals in the form of clicks, which help the driver. By these clicks, the driver understands that the device is currently functioning.

In addition to the fact that the breaker is responsible for the functioning of the light alarm necessary for maneuvers, it also allows them to work in emergency mode. The VAZ-2107 uses an electronic relay, the blinking frequency of which lamps depends on the settings of the electronic circuit. Above is a photo of a modern electronic turn signal relay, which is used on VAZ-2107 cars.

Diagnosis of turn signal faults

If one day the turn signals stop functioning, this indicates that it is time to diagnose the car. To do this, there is no need to go to a service station, but you can do everything at home. The following signs indicate that the mechanism has stopped functioning:

• When turned on, the turn signals light up, but they do not flicker. This type of failure is directly related to the failure of the relay. To correct the problem, you need to replace the breaker.
• Accelerated or slow flickering of turn signals. Accelerated flickering indicates that the filament of one of the lamps has burned out. Slow flickering indicates that at least one lamp of higher power than recommended is connected to the circuit. With the advent of modern LED lamps, many motorists are eager to install them on their cars. When installing LED lamps in turn signals, they flicker too quickly, this is due to their low power consumption.
• The devices do not function at all. The reason may be a malfunction of the relay, fuse, steering column switch or hazard warning light button. The connection diagram is designed so that the power for the turn signals passes through the emergency light button. If the button is faulty, then the turns will not function.

For clarity, let’s present a diagram of direction indicators and emergency lights for the seven. It includes:

1. block headlights with turn signal bulbs;
2. direction indicators located on the front fenders of the car (side);
3. mounting block;
4. egnition lock;
5. emergency button;
6. the relay in question;
7. turn signal bulbs located in the rear lights;
8. a light on the instrument panel indicating that the turns are on;
9. Understeering's shifter.

Where to find a relay on a VAZ-2107

Where is the device responsible for the intermittent operation of the turn signal? The relay can be located in two places on the VAZ-2107: in the mounting block or behind the dashboard.

In carburetor "sevens" the product is located behind the dashboard in the car's interior, and in injection ones - on the mounting block, which is located under the hood. Structurally, the breaker is a box with contacts on the outside. The product cannot be repaired, so if it fails, it must be replaced.

Features of replacing the breaker

If it is discovered that the turn relay is faulty, then it needs to be replaced. The product located in the mounting block must be pryed off and dismantled. If it is faulty, which must be verified, then a new one should be installed in its place. This is how replacement is carried out for injection “sevens”. Making a replacement on carburetor “sevens” is much more difficult. The replacement process looks like this:

• You need to remove the dashboard by prying it up with a screwdriver.
• After this, we try to pull it out a short distance, if possible. If the length of the wires does not allow the panel to be brought out a certain distance, then the connections should be disconnected.
• Unscrew the speedometer drive cable.
• Visually locate the relay and disconnect the contact wires from it.
• We also disconnect the ground from it, after which we dismantle the device.
• A new relay should be installed in place of the old turn signal switch.
• Finally, assemble and connect all dismantled parts in the reverse order of removal.

To summarize, it should be noted that the breaker is one of the most important components of every car, and it is necessary to monitor its serviceability. Road safety directly depends on it.

Fuse

To understand why the emergency lights on the VAZ 2114 do not work, the first thing you need to do is check the fuse responsible for it. It is installed in the mounting block under the hood of the car on the left side. This fusible element is designated F2. To speed up the search, you can use the electrical diagram number fourteen, where its exact location is drawn.

A burnt out or broken part can sometimes be identified visually by the presence of plaque or damaged elements. You can also check the serviceability of the fuse using a multimeter. There are two diagnostic methods.

For the first method, the measuring device must be switched to voltmeter mode and the car's alarm system must be turned on. By connecting the probes of the device to the outputs on the fuse element, determine the presence of voltage on them. If one of them does not have it, the part needs to be replaced. It is inexpensive and can be changed literally with one movement of the hand. You can even make a replacement on the go. Especially if there is an auto parts store nearby.

You can also diagnose the element with this device in ohmmeter mode. To do this, you need to remove it from the car and attach the probes to the outputs. If the resistance is zero, the part should be replaced.

It is worth noting that some motorists with such a breakdown begin to check the K2 relay. But there is no need to waste time diagnosing it, since in this case the turn indicators would not light up either.

Light signals

In most cases, car owners give each other light signals: this is much more effective in attracting the attention of another traffic participant.

Headlight signals

Most often, car owners use headlight signals to communicate with other road users. There are five most common cases when such a symbol may be needed:

1. If there is a traffic police patrol on the road, or speed cameras are installed, you can warn oncoming motorists about this. Blink your high beams twice and in return you will receive a “thank you” in the form of a raised hand.
2. When giving way to a car leaving the adjacent territory, signal to the driver that you are ready to give way. Just turn your high beams on and off immediately, and other road users will immediately understand you.
3. Is there an obstacle or danger on the road? By blinking your high beams twice, warn oncoming motorists about this, and they will reduce their speed.
4. If you want to ask the driver of the car ahead to stop, blink your high beams and use the right turn signal as an additional signal.
5. When the motorist in front is in no hurry, and you need to go faster, ask him to give way by blinking your high beams.

Emergency light blinking

This signal can be used in three situations at once. It is needed to:

• say “thank you” to the driver who gave way to you;
• apologize for your own inattention or impoliteness (this will show the other motorist that you are aware of your guilt);
• at night, indicate to the driver of an oncoming car that he forgot to turn off the high beams.

Turn signal signals

First of all, turn signals are designed to indicate the further direction of movement of the car. But with their help, the car ahead can inform about the road situation. Most often, drivers of heavy trucks do this, blocking the view of passenger cars:

1. If the car in front of you flashes the right turn signal, but continues to move straight, the driver reports that the overtaking lane is clear, and you can safely proceed with the maneuver. But don’t forget to make sure of your own safety.
2. With the left turn signal the situation is the opposite. The blinking of this indicator light indicates that there is oncoming traffic ahead, so overtaking cannot be done.

Brake lights

Some motorists may forget that it is important to keep their distance on the road. If you blink your brake lights several times, you can ask the driver behind you to slow down and not get too close

The emergency lights on the VAZ 2109 do not work

Hello everyone, dear car owners of the legendary VAZ 2109 (nine). Today I would like to talk about why the emergency lights do not work on this car.

The electrical circuit of the emergency lights on the car is protected by fuses, which are located under the hood in the mounting block. If you find that after pressing the hazard warning button on the instrument cluster, the special turn signal lamps do not blink, then most likely this means that the emergency lights on the VAZ 2109 are not working. First of all, you need to look for the reason in fuses F5 and F11; if you have a mounting block of a different type, then the designations may not match. But finding the right fuse is not difficult; any mounting block on the cover has a decoding. The hazard warning light is indicated by a triangle, and the turn signals are indicated by two arrows. The fuse designations for the VAZ 2109 can be found here.

If the fuses are not in order, then you need to replace them with new ones, observing the required amperage. And if the fuses are intact, then you need to check the K2 turn signal relay. The easiest way to check a relay is to replace it with another one that is definitely working. If in this case the emergency light on the VAZ 2109 does not work, then you need to check the wires and contacts in the connector blocks. If everything is fine with this, then most likely the problem with the alarm button can be solved by replacing it with a new one.

Well, that's all, we've looked at the main reasons why the emergency lights on a VAZ 2109 don't work. Bye everyone.

A considerable number of VAZ owners are faced with a situation where the turn signals and emergency lights do not work on the VAZ 2110 or other models, and the problem often takes them by surprise. The most common reason why turn signals on a VAZ 2109 do not work is that the car's electrical system has failed.

To prevent a situation where the turn signals and hazard lights do not function, determine the reason why they broke. The most common causes of electrical breakdowns in a car include:

• depressurization. This causes water and dirt to enter the electrical system;
• oxidation. This occurs at the terminals and results in loss of contact. It’s easy to see: when the turn signal turns off and you disassemble the optics, you will see a green coating. To remove it, clean it with a rag and try to energize the contact;
• fuse failure. To avoid getting into a situation where the emergency lighting stops functioning, find the fuse responsible for turns (for example, K2). Next you just need to replace it. In addition to the failure of the fuse, you may encounter the problem of replacing its contacts;

Mounting fuse block VAZ 2109 2108 21099

• light bulb burnout. If the lack of light occurs for this reason, simply replace the lamp with a new one;
• broken switch or button. If the turn signals and emergency lights do not work, to fix it, get to the switch located under the steering wheel and disassemble it. The button can simply be replaced;
• broken wiring.

Does signaling with turn signals give you an advantage in traffic?

Signaling does not give the driver an advantage or relieve him from taking precautions. This is stated in paragraph 8.2 of the traffic rules

Giving a turn signal (turning the turn signal on) only informs other road users of your intention to change direction.

But in different traffic situations, depending on expediency, another driver has the right to give up his right to priority to you. Such “concessions” can often be noticed while driving on multi-lane roads. I recommend the article Simultaneous lane changes on a multi-lane road.

In such circumstances, before changing lanes, you first need to make sure that they are giving way to you (letting you go ahead). How to avoid a collision in this case, I suggest reading the article Turn signal, changing lanes and overtaking.
