Flasher Relay Broke or Turn Signal Switch?

[manualf150]

Here's a good one... I washed my tractor and now my turn left signal stays on solid. When I put on the hazards, the right hand only flashes while the left signal is still solid. When I try messing with the turn signal switch, it only flashes the right. It's weird.

Does anyone want to make a guess for me? I'm going to clean the switch out with some electrical cleaner.

I used the tractor without the flashers today by pulling the fuse for the turn signals.

I would like to get it fixed, as it is one of those two items.

It is a 2003 BX2200.

You might want to take a look at the bulb sockets.

At the bulbs on the display panel or the actual turn signals? Each have bulbs.

I'm going to say look at the ones on the ROPS...

This is a very common problem with BX models. The switches are not waterproof. Some people have had success with blowing them out with compressed air, others have used water displacers (WD-40) and still others have replaced the switches with waterproof ones.

Kubota upgraded the switches over the years so you could buy a set from the dealer.

Note: I have the same model and had the same problem. Several times of looking out to the barn and seeing lights flashing in the middle of the night without the switches being turned on meant a change was necessary. The switches were pulled and unplugged.
