How to Replace Your Turn Signal Relay in a Mitsubishi 3000GT

If you want to save money on car repair, it's prudent to focus on some of the smaller issues that most anyone can perform. An example of this type of repair is the replacement of your Mitsubishi 3000GT's turn signal relay. All it takes is the ability to use a screwdriver and an aptitude to follow a simple set of directions.

Instructions

1

Find the location of the relay panel in your Mitsubishi 3000GT. Some models of the Mitsubishi 3000GT may not have a relay panel. Instead, the lower part of the steering column housing covers the turn signal relay. If this is the case, you would need to remove it to gain access to the relay.

2

Take a screwdriver and remove the relay panel. Be careful when you do this, because you can damage the plastic cover.

3

Check the underside of the relay panel for a diagram, which will tell you which relay if for the turn signal.

4

Replace the old turn signal relay with a new one. The defective relay should simply pop out and the new one will slide right in to replace it. You don't need any specialized tools. However, be careful not damage any of the other parts in the vicinity.

5

Confirm that the turn signal works. Turn on the electrical system of the Mitsubishi 3000GT and switch on the blinker. If the blinker is still not operating properly, check to be sure you seated the relay correctly.

6

Put the relay panel back into place if the signal works.
