Where is the turn signal flasher located on a 2005 mustang gt?

My left turn signal flashes fast even after replacing bulbs for parking lights and marker. I did notice the marker connector inside piece appeared to be damaged. I guess its possible that is causing a ground issue.

Does not use a flasher , controlled by SJB - smart junction box , module - computer etc...
Turn Signal and Hazard Lamps
All turn signal outputs are controlled by the SJB. The multifunction switch and the hazard switch are hard-wired to the SJB. When the multifunction switch is in the left or right turn position, or the hazard switch is engaged, the SJB processes this information and outputs the appropriate command to the turn signal and hazard lamps. All turn signal lamps provide a lamp outage indication.

Rather then trying to guess your way to a repair , Take it to a qualified repair shop. Could have DTC'S - diagnostic trouble code's stored that point in the correct diagnostic path .

Inspection and Verification

  1. Verify the customer concern.
  1. Visually inspect the following for obvious signs of mechanical or electrical damage.


Visual Inspection Chart Mechanical Electrical
  • Multifunction switch
  • Hazard switch
  • Circuitry
  • Bulbs
  • Smart junction box (SJB)

  1. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding to the next step.
  1. If the cause is not visually evident, connect the diagnostic tool to the data link connector (DLC) and select the vehicle to be tested from the diagnostic tool menu. If the diagnostic tool does not communicate with the vehicle:
    • check that the program card is correctly installed.
    • check the connections to the vehicle.
    • check the ignition switch position.
  1. If the diagnostic tool still does not communicate with the vehicle, refer to the diagnostic tool operating manual.
  1. Carry out the diagnostic tool data link test. If the diagnostic tool responds with:
    • CAN circuit fault; all electronic control units no response/not equipped, refer to Section 418-00 .
    • No response/not equipped for SJB, refer to Section 419-10 .
    • System passed, retrieve and record the continuous diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs), erase the continuous DTCs and carry out the self-test diagnostics for the SJB.
  1. If the DTCs retrieved are related to the concern, go to the Smart Junction Box (SJB) Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index.
  1. If no DTCs related to the concern are retrieved, GO to Symptom Chart .
  2. Smart Junction Box (SJB) Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index DTC Description Action B1342 ECU is Faulted CLEAR the DTCs. RETRIEVE the DTCs. If DTC B1342 is retrieved again, INSTALL a new SJB.

If you have trouble finding signal flasher, turn your right side blinker on, and follow clicking noise to flasher.

SOURCE: Turn Signal Flasher location in 93 Mustang GT

The flasher is a small round plastic cylinder (unless replaced with a metal one) behind the left edge of the glove box that will look similar to the one in the fuse panel. The first step is to squeeze gently both sides of the open glove box and let it swing downward. It will be snapped into a metal horizontal brace just to the left of the glovebox opening by a small tab and have two wires attached. The number more than likely will be a #552 although I have seen a factory one with a Warner #224

SOURCE: left turn signal flashing fast, bulbs are OK,

you said lights are working fine on rear but generally when they flash fast there is a turn signal light out on the side they flash on. Did you look at the turn signal light on the front of the vehicle?

SOURCE: turn signals flash very fast,all bulbs are

Buy new wiring harnesses I tried everything you did and getting new harnesses online for around $19.00 a piece fixed this issue and it sure was a relief. Search online and don't forget Amazon too. Good luck.

When its blinking fast look at both front and rear to verify which bulb isnt flashing. If the right works OK, then the flasher is OK. The flasher is INSIDE the front control module/integrated power module. If you cant find the problem, you may need a dealer to check it.

2000 taurus left turn signal flashes rapidly and the left rear turn signal lamp does not work. Does ford have burned out bulb sense circuit that would give this indication? The right side flashes normally.

Yes - the fast flashing is a warning that a bulb is burned out. Change the bulb (be careful to put it in the same as the old one as it probably is 2 bulbs in one , parking and turn/stop) and you should be fine.

Are you sure the right side bulbs all flash? You say you replaced all the bulbs? Why would you replace bulbs that were working? Did you have this problem before you replaced the bulbs, or after. The hazard flasher is down under the dash, left side, turn the signals on and follow the clicking noise.The hazard flasher and the turn signal flasher should be near each other, and are interchangeable. If it clicks fast, a bulb or a bad socket is usually the cause. These trucks have a lot of problems with the tail light circuit boards.
