Well it seems like it's one thing after another. I never could finalize a deal on The rubber fender ssue so I finally decided to just install the fiberglass ones I bought 4 years ago.  Looks Damn good after painting. BUT....
When I was reinstalling the turn signal idicators on the new fenders I accidently shorted out the hazard flashers when the screw that holds the lense on cut into the hot wire and shorted the flashers out. Now I have no hazards and no turn signals. I have the MC9 maintenance manual but I can't figure out where the fuses are. Is there fuses? Breakers?? And where the hell are they??
Thanks
Guys

Don't think your going to do a conversion overnight. I did and 4 years later I'm still only 85% done. LOL  :)  :)

Why??  Because I did it right. Check out my any of my 900+

Greg -

Breakers, not fuses.  In the exterior electrical panel underneath the driver's toll window.  You'll need a wiring schematic - the 9's maintenance manual should have them in the back - to help you find the right one.

Flasher unit is commonly found on the left front frame post, to the left of where the ball of your foot would be if you had a manual gearbox and you were stepping on the clutch pedal at the top of it's travel.

Remember - they're 24v if you have to replace it, which is probably a pretty good idea anyway.

FWIW & HTH. . .

Ok. The question is how do I reset it?? I have the manual. And I think I found the proper one. But reseting it was a mystery.

They are self reset! First change the flasher, someone on here (I think) chased and chased till he figured the flasher was fried.
Did you check with master power switch on, also may have loose wire on a braker, switch, loose nut on terminal board.

Well I see nothing INSIDE the coach under the dash or any kind of electrical down there. Where you refering to that location BUT, in the panal box outside? I see two relays there ( to the extreteme lower left looking inside the panal box under the drivers window) labeled:

RELAY 24V MULTI
P/N 79-5-19

Am I close??

GOT IT ! I was making this harder than it had to be. It was inside the front panal box. CLEARLY LABELED "falsher unit. It looks like it was aftermarket and actually had an inline fuse that was blown. I was looking for the obscure. When in fact it was clear.
Thanks
