Hello,
A silly question to ask, I had to have a new starter put on the bus yesterday and after the job was complete, started it up and
there isn't any turn signals, brake lights, hazards also. Everything worked before the starter was replaced! Something fried ?

Does the starter work from the dash switch?

Yes Brian it does.

That means you have power to the master switch, and power to the front bus bar. Clearance lights and hazard lights should work whenever the main disconnect is on, master switch on or off, turn signals and headlights and I think brake lights need the master switch on. Check to see if you have 24 volts on the main power bus. With the clearance lights switch on, check to see if you have power on stud 15 and 16. With the master switch on, check to see if you have power on stud 14 - that feeds, among many other things, the headlights through a 15 amp auto-reset breaker. If you have no power on stud 14 and the front starter switch works, there is something wrong with the master switch. The master switch is a quite large 4 gang on/off switch, there is a copper bus that bonds three of the gangs together making them into one high current switch. That bonding bus on the switch may be broken, mine was broken. Hack handedness did it, not mine, I just had to fix it.

Thanks Brian, I'll check that out tomorrow.
