My MNF is almost 100%. I have a number of flashers that are not firing. I'm talking about the Red, Yellow and green football inserts (at least) on the left and right sides of the PF.

The Left Yellow (Flasher 1) and Right Yellow(Flasher 5) both work but none of the others do. I have swapped bulbs/holders into different spots and tested them.

The IDC connector in the head is fine and the board itself is good as well.

I do have the full orginial schematics so just tell me what to test with my MM (and what settings, etc....I am not familiar with it.)

Thanks!

Have you checked for continuity? Could be as simple as a broken wire...

Yes. I've checked for the physical stuff like broken wires, bad bulbs, fuses, etc.

Bump!

After some testing, it looks to be the CN11 section of my MPU board. Previous acid damage and some work has already been done. Time to send it out.

Update when it gets back...curious to see how this one ends

Not a problem on the mpu as all the coils worked. Turned out to be issues with the under pf lamp boards.

bliznick is right. I was using my jump to conclusions mat. There were multiple issues with the boards. A huge chunk out of the board on one that I had to make a jumper for and ended up replacing a few bulb holders. Kris is the MAN!
