My turn signal on the outside of my car all works fine, but the inside light on the dash does not light up; I check the bulbs and they are ok.If you put a test light on the socket it work fine. Need help of anyone can. | ||

Have you tried a new bulb? Since you say the socket works correctly with a test light that points to the bulb. That or something about the socket has deformed slightly such that the contacts between socket and bulb are not actually occurring. By the way, and welcome, it would be best to place technical questions regarding the Silver Shadow in the Silver Shadow Series forum as opposed to General Discussion.

The flasher warning lamps are fed from the flasher unit directly, that is why the flasher light is on in between flashes, check the indicator unit is both working and seated correctly properly | ||

Hi Sheriffe, I had a similar problem on my 1976 Shaddow, but my indicator dash light worked outside the speedo but couldn't be seen from the drivers seat, I found that the rubber housing inside the speedo had melted so stopping any light getting through the green gem. | ||

Sheriffe, I had the same problem a while ago, the problem turned out to be the contacts in the steering column that switch the dash lights. On my 1970 car there are two sets of contacts, one for the outside flashers and a second set for the dash lights. On my car I just removed a little vinyl trim piece at the base of the column and 4 screws. you could clean them easily if the steering column shell were off. |
