Flasher Control Module Removal/Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Mazda MPV. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

  1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.
  2. Remove the bracket.
  3. Disconnect the flasher control module connector.
  4. Remove the flasher control module by prying the lock section of the upper part with a flathead screwdriver.
