First signal lights and then ignition 200 1984

Hi Bob,

I don't have the 1984 manual but think Fuse 13 is for the directionals
so you can have a dead fuse and/or corroded fuse socket.

There's several ignition schemes in that era with different controllers
so you need to specify what engine and ignition setup.

My two cents before a 240 heavy hitter chimes in.
You can service the connectors to the controller and the distributor 3 pin connector for the hall. Use Penetrox-A on the connector pins.
Perhaps it's a transistorized controller and is mounted
on a heat sink, if so you can renew the thermal compound.

Goto for wiring parts and info.
See his 240 wiring fix pages.
Read his section "ACZP" Anti Corrosion Zinc Paste (Penetrox)

Good luck, Bill
