Probably he meants when he turn the key to "ON" or start the car up, the hazard lights work, and if he don't it won't work.

^^ If thats the case, then its probably a fuse somewhere. I had a similar problem earlier this week. None of the locks, windows, dome, clock or radio worked unless key was in the "on" position. Turned out to be a blown fuse in the engine fuse box.

yes if i touch a wire from the battery to a turn signal they work they dont work at all now. I have gone to a few people and thy say everything works up to the light ecu and they need to find it to check it.

There is no light ECU. It was probably a bad relay or fuse.

There are two possible explanations.

1) The mechanics have no idea what they are talking about
2) You misunderstood them.

Take it somewhere else (like the dealership) and get another opinion. If they also say they need to find the light ECU, then we have all been left in the dark, they forgot to add that part to the service manual and no one on these boards can help you.

Yes!!! Take it to the dealership like everyone said, then go back to those mechanics and tell them to go back to school, because they obviously don't know what their talking about.

YOU'RE SEARCHING FOR SANTA CLAUS. You will NEVER find a light ECU because no such thing exists. Whoever told you that clearly has no experience with Lancer electrical. I'm electrically retarded and I know better.

This is ****ing hilarious.

Why ask if you're not going to listen to the correct answer? You think you know it all, then stop bothering us.

This is the funniest and retarded thing i've ever heared of. Light ECU.........Theres no such thing and the man still doesnt get it.
I bet if he took the car to the dearler and told them to find it, they would probably laugh. Then they would tell him that theres no such thing and he still wouldnt get it.
