  Q: Where is the Turn Signal Flasher Located and What is its Function on a Toyota Prius?

  A:

  The turn signal and hazard flasher is a single combination unit located in different areas depending on the model year, On the 2003 and the earlier models, it is available in the interior Fuse/relay box at the left side of the installation board; on the 2004 through the 2009 models, it is located underneath the left side of the installation board; On the 2010 and other later models, it is located under the side defrosting air duct at the upper side of the upper installation board, whereby, this needs dismount This is true, a good flasher makes a clicking sound while in operation and if turn signals fails on one side or flasher did not click or when one bulb is flashing much faster than the other but does not light, then possibility is that the turn signal bulb is bad. If the turn signals do not blink on both sides, common reasons for such signals are a blown fuse, a faulty flasher unit, a bad switch, and a poor connection, although a blown fuse should be accompanied by a check for a short in the circuit before replacing, it. To remove the flasher, the electric connector must be disconnected and the unit taken out of the electrical center, The replacement unit should be as similar as possible to the removed unit, which can be compared before fitting it because the process involves the reverse of the above steps.
