I have been having trouble with my turn signals.. One day they work, the next day they do not. Anyone have this happen before? I have not looked into the issue yet but am getting annoyed with it.
i had this happen to me one but in my case the relay under the dash was kinda loose. they didnt work since i got the car and one day i moved it and check my signals and worked. then two weeks later the relay went out and bough a new one.and havent had issues since. hope this helps.
The location varies. It's best to get it work, turn it on and listen for it.
Keep an eye out for the HVAC blower, radio, wipers, etc not functioning at all times (when they should). The TS's, along with any of those, can indicate that the ignition switch is going south.
The turn signal flasher is not mounted on the front of the fuse panel. The flasher on the front of the fuse panel is a separate one for the hazard lights. The turn signal flasher is in one of several places, depending on when your car was made. Some are behind the fuse panel on the back side, others are behind the radio and some are behind the glove box.
Other possible problem sources for the turn signal malfunction are the ignition switch, multifunction switch and the plastic shell that holds the turn signal wiring connector pins.
A word of caution about multifunction switches is in order here. The multifunction switch (high/low beam, wiper, turn signals) are different for different years. 87-89 will work in any 87-89 car. The 90-93 switches only work in 90-93 cars. You can't put an early model switch in a late model car, nor can you put a late model switch in an early car.
Supposedly you can move the pins around to make the switches work in model years that are different from the car the switch came out of. I cannot verify that and haven’t tried it .
Also pull your hazzard switch from the dash bezel and make sure the orange wire is snug in the back of the switch. I had a similar issue and after replacing BOTH the flasher and the hazzard relay's I found that orange wire to be loose. Blinkers work now that I pushed it back in.
