Hi,

I have a 2007 Escape with a turn signal problem. It was intermittent but is now permanent. The left rear does not work. The indicator flashes fast and the front bulb works but not the rear. I checked the bulb and it's OK. I also checked for voltage at the rear socket and no voltage is present. I checked the ground at the rear socket and it's good. I'm guessing I have a bad connection somewhere but not sure where to look. I did try moving the steering column up and down while trying the signal but that did not make a difference. Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Welcome to site..

The R&L share a ground so that would eliminate a grounding issue. If you have no power distribution at the lamp connector next step may be to check/back probe the left turn circuit at the Smart Junction Box connector. If you have nothing there, chances are its a problem within the SJB..

 

Thanks Hayapower! I'm new to this vehicle. Where is the SJB located? I'll probably need to get a wiring diagram to follow up on this. Thanks for your help and glad to be aboard.

Centered under the lower dash. I can send you diagrams and connector views if you need them..

 

I would sure appreciate that Hayapower. I would guess that is the first connection coming from the tail light. Thanks so much for your help!
