The turn signal hazard flasher is a small unit which can be found behind the multi-function switch mounted inside the steering column. It produces a clicking noise during operation and if it is non-functioning or a turn signal circuit is only partially complete, the flasher speed is accelerated. If nowhere does the turn signal blink, the possible problems could include a blown
Fuse, a bad flasher unit, or a bad switch, or loose connection. One should check the fuse rapidly in the box and if that one, which is used for turn signal is faulty then one should check the wiring for any short and then replace the fuse. If the fuse is good, the turn signal light bulbs should be replaced and the operation of the bulbs should be checked by hooking the bulbs to a 12 volt battery. If the bulbs are functioning, then, the turn signal section of the multi-function switch as well as the wiring harness should be tested for continuity. To replace the flasher the steering wheel column covers must be taken off to get to turn signal/hazard combo flasher sits behind the multi-function switch. Each of these elements is described further below The flasher unit can be drawn out of the multi-function switch if needed. To guarantee that the replacement flasher unit will not be different in any way, it recommended to compare the two units to be installed. The new flasher unit should be inserted into the multi-function switch and make sure it can seat properly and the cover of the steering wheel column should be attached again.
