Default Help Identify Please

Hey everyone,

I am cleaning some excess wires out of my car and ran into this. Not sure what it is, It has a clear globe around it also but it is broke off. Wire colors appear to be purple and black.

Thx for the quick reply. I just looked at napa online at flashers and I think you are right because the electrical connection is the same and I saw some that had the same clear housing.

you should have 2 under there. you have the blinkers and the hazards so if you only have one flasher under there (one on each side) then thats what it is.

That is the hazard flasher with the cap off. There are two black composite spars on the bottom of the dash on either side of the steering wheel. On those spars (one on each side) is a clip that holds the flasher out of view. I recall the hazard is on the left side and the regular flasher is on the right. If you check the clip on the left, I'll bet the cap for the flasher is still there. Just take the cap out, super glue it to the flasher module - and you'll be good to go!

Thanks for the advice. I have the cap and the clip sitting on the floorboard the whole assembly was just hanging in there.
