I just bought my first RX7. It is an 85 GSL-SE. The turn sugnals, hazards, and wipers dont work. I cant figure out what is wrong with the car. I have already checked the fuses and the CPU. Both of them are good. Any ideas?

in the first gen forum there are the fsm's posted at the top. thankfully the first gen does not have nearly as much wiring as the fd, so you should be able to trace it back pretty easily. as for personal experience, never had that issue before :/

It's prolly two separate issues. Obviously check the fuses, for the turn signals I would give the flasher a look.

the guages on my fd didn't work for 3 months because i completely forgot to replug-in one of the harness plugs to the fuse box. i know dumb, that's not lol. i'd just use a wire brush and clean off the posts and connectors and call it good
