Title: Turn Signal
Post by: shannonrose on August 22, 2009, 08:12:24 AM
Is there anyone near Nashville TN who could help me get my left turn signals working again?  They've been an issue since we bought the bus and I really need them working.  I have to leave for Florida in the next few days and hope to get it fixed for that trip.
Thanks much!

No idea on the turn signal shannon but we sure are hoping the florida trip brings some good news.

Might try calling George @ Southeastern Motor Coach in Nashville and see what they can do for ya! I'm 2.5-3 hrs west of Nashville.
Of course then there is Joel @ Chattanooga Choo-Choo Express garage on yer way down there!

or last this is what I tell our drivers when they call in on the phone wanting me to fix turn signals over the phone instead of righting it up and leaving the shop a note about it.

some of you are gonna love this (Shannon no offense meant!)

Driver; Hey my left turn signal won't work!

BK;Just don't turn left! (driver gasps angrily!)


Driver; What? And just how do you suggest I get to where I need to be?

BK; That's easy, jest go 1 block past where ya wanted to go left & take a right, go 1 more block, and take another right, one more block take another right! See ya just made a left turn and are now headed the direction you wanted to go and ya didn't have to turn across traffic! No thanks required right now, you can thank me later.... click
;D  BK  ;D

No if ya think about it it actually puts you one block from where you started, but head back toward it and if ya keep going it'll take ya where ya wanted to go! 3 rights = 1 left! ;D 
;D  BK  ;D

A post office supervisor  tried to tell thier drivers they could not make a left turn no matter what the reason.  One station had a little problem the only entrance was on the left side of the road and the next right was several miles down the road it faced a rail road track with no crossing any where close.

The supervisor still insisted that we could not turn left.

But then the supervisor that made and wanted to enforce that rule retired.  I love the state ment that me made at his retirement get togather.  He said "now I can take the map to work off the dash of my van"  He had worked in the same building and lived in the same house for over 24 years.  If he still needed a map I wonder about him!
