Just got my ‘73 2.0 out of the shop. Engine rebuilt and new hoses and fuel lines, brake refresh, etc. idles and runs like a dream (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

*they had to do some electrical work to get the horn and all the lights working*

So now there’s an annoying problem:

The two blinker lights at the top of the tachometer go on (red sold light, not blinking) and an annoying buzzer noise goes on.

When I pull the hazard light knob on the left, the green hazard light comes on and the buzzing stops.

When I signal to turn left and right, the buzzing stops.

The buzzing is driving me slightly crazy.

Anybody ..... ?

I would say you have a short to back feed the relay, this is common. Disconnect one light assembly at a time and see what makes the buzzing stop, that is the miswired assembly. Always remember that any brown wire is a ground wire and must not be attached to a hot lead
