73- 2.0L. Flasher unit clicks any time the key is on. Left blinker works fine. Right blinker clicks very fast and blows the fuse. Any ideas as to what would cause this? Combo switch? Seems like lots of electrical problems this week.

I mean the round relay with the four posts. And... it's probably not the relay if it's clicking. It's probably the brake warning switch on the Master Cylinder. What I meant by "relay" is; If you hear the relay clicking (you mentioned "clicks all the time") then it could very well be that switch on the master cylinder. That is the symptom (constant clicking) of the brake warning switch on the master cylinder. Your post also indicates trouble when you turn on the right turn signal. All of these things route through the turn signal relay. It could be an open circuit on the right turn signal causing the relay to click. It probably "isn't" the relay itself but... it's easy enough to check.
That relay controls: The E-Brake light Hazzards Low Brake Pressure Warning (how's your fluid?) and your Turn Signals |
