could anyone with a stock wired 40 let me know what your flasher is wired to??is it green w/blue stripe???

 

[Coolerman]

On a stock 71 the wires to the flasher are Green/Red and Green/Blue.

both grounds ?

both grounds ?

Both are "hot" wires. One is constant power and the other is flashing power.

There are very few ground wires and they are always white with a black stripe. Most devices are grounded to the sheet metal or frame, which provides the return path to the battery -.

The red/green wire connected to the B terminal on the flasher goes to a separate fuse that is taped to the harness. Check that fuse, it's probably blown.

The Green/Blue wire connected to the L terminal goes to the turn/hazard lights front and rear.

To see if the wiring is good after the flasher: Make up a flasher bypass jumper wire and insert it into the two terminals in the plug that connects to the flasher shorting the Red/Green wire to the Green/Blue wire . Now pull the hazard switch on. All four lights should light up if the grounds/bulbs are good.
