    A couple of times lately my right turn signal won't work. At other times it works. I have checked the bulb and the fuses in the trunk. Do I have a ground problem and would appreciate any ideas. its a 2003 F-1 Spyder

    Shouldn't be a problem, you're just not an ambi-turner anymore. Just go left.

    It will very likely be the flasher relay. Its in the footwell area and relatively inexpensive and easy to replace. Its part number 213326.

    Here is my pinout describing what the pins do. You could check the eletrical connections on the pins using a multimeter before ordering a new one...

    It was produced by SDC and I found it was actually shared with an Alfa Romeo of a similar vintage/year.

    If your feeling like your insulted to pay upto $200 for a $20 Alfa Romeo relay I can fully understand it... Thankfully if open up the unit the relay itself can easily be desoldered and replaced for less $10, even by someone inexperienced with a soldering iron. This isn't state of the art electronics here and the solder joints are the size of dinner plates (looks like a kids school project !)
