My turn signal/hazards will not work. I have already checked the fuse, it is not blown. I also put another fuse in there to double check, it did not work.
What can I do to fix this problem? I do not have time to take it into the shop. I am leaving tomorrow on a road trip out of town. Perfect timing!
Thank you,
Dan

Check for a blown No. 15 (10 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box, check for a blown No. 43 (10 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box, and check/replace the turn signal/hazard relay from the under-dash fuse/relay box.

Thanks for the help! I checked both fuses and they are not blown. Is there anything else that I can do?

. Remove the turn signal/hazard relay from the under-dash fuse/relay box.
. Inspect the relay holder terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
. Tap on relay to see if it was hanging up.

These relays are very reliable and it's hard to believe that your's has failed, since your Civic is so new.

If your's is the typical 3-prong relay, try this:
. Remove relay from socket
. For top left socket, turn ignition ON and check for voltage to ground. If there's no voltage, then you either have an open in the wire or a faulty hazard warning switch.

Did you test all under-hood and under-dash fuses with a multimeter (set to DCV), with ignition ON, and verify power to each test terminal on every fuse?

It looks like there are about 10 different relays from the under-dash box, and the manual doesn't have a diagram of it. How do I know which one is the signal/hazard relay? The fuse box, fusesn and relays look like they havenever been touched. It doesn't make any sense, except that I have a big weekend of driving. I really appreciate your help! Thank you.

Better hold off until you can take it into Honda.
