It sounds like you maybe have a defective ignition switch or an open internal open battery post. So first have the battery tested by a parts store it is free then go from there

SOURCE: Power seats and power windows quit

There are too many places to look. A couple of the places would be under your seat, see if a ground wire came loose. If you can get it on a computer and see what it turns up as. If you do not have access to a computer (and I do not mean your laptop or desktop ) than you can goto any mechanic and they will have one to put on it but it will cost more than your going to want to pay.

My left turn signal recently stopped working. Before ceasing to work, the turn signal (just the left) would blink very rapidly (machine gun speed).

sounds like one of light bulbs was malfunctioning and caused the flasher unit to blink rapidly and iy burned out. Replace front and rear turn lite bulbs and see if flasher flashes. if not check fuse and replace fuse. If fuse okay replace flasher unit. Good luck

My turn signal doesn't work? I have get all for the lights bulbs. And cant found the fuse for the flashes. Can some one help to found out what wrong?

It may very well be the turn signal flasher itself, which will be located near the fuse block at the lower right of the steering column. Once you remove the fuse block cover, you should be able to see the flasher (usually dangling free by its wires) just above the fuse block, although sometimes you have to feel around a bit because, as it's dangling free, it can sometimes bounce around and get behind or to the side of the fuse block. Once you find it, you should be able to gently pull the flasher/wiring assembly down enough to be able to remove the flasher and replace it.
If you do NOT find it relatively easily, it should be noted that on certain models of the Celebrity, the flasher is actually clipped to the side of the ashtray rather than dangling free; I do not believe that this will be the case on your '90, but it's the only other place to look if you can't find it right around the fuses.
Good luck!

Both my right & left turn signals aren't working but hazards are

If you can locate the hazrd flasher unit under the dash on the drivers side, the turn flasher unit should be right beside it and looks the same. Unplug and switch the 2 flashers and see if the turn signals work. The flasher unit is a silver and round. they are usually close to the stering colum. Let me know if that helps.

Directional signals screwed up, but my 4 way flashers work.

For this modle and year the turn signal flasher should be mounted in a clip on the right side of the steering column support bracket. The hazard flasher is located under the instrument panel in the module block, on the right side.
Hope this helps,

1991 Ford E150 turn signals do not work,emergancy flashers flash constantlly unless the flasher relay is unplugged from fuse block

Hi,

If I understand you right based on your post/description, the signal lights would still turn on even if any or both of the flasher relays are removed. Should this be the case, then the signal lights are not getting the power from the flasher relays but from the brake light circuit.

Perhaps your concern is not with any of the flasher, but simply missing or loose ground more particularly with the rear lights. Perhaps you could try determining which of the wires for the brake lights and signal lights (as they come out of the light assembly) would be ground . A test and even possibly a temporary workaround is to hard wire a second ground connection from the determined ground wire of the lights and attach it to any conveniently located bolt or screw to the body. it may be to your advantage to do this on all the rear lights assembly.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.
