Ok, So I have been thinking that my computer in my 2.4 alero is screwed and today I think I have my proof. I was going to the pool hall to make some money tonight and outta nowhere my trun signals stop working. I stopped in a parking lot and changed a fuse on the drivers side fuse box that says Trn Lmps. And Nothing...
K so now I look around and there cops everywhere so I just went home to figure it out. I didnt see in the owners manual a relay for the turn signals. I took off my negative terminal on my battery and let it set a while...I put it back on and presto they are working...I go to drive to the pool hall and 5 min down the rd they go out again.
I dont know if it is the switch b/c when I engage the signal to turn and do turn it still snaps back to the middle and it was working for a few seconds there. ANy ideas of whats wrong?

Not a recall. There was an STB (service technician's Bulletin...or something like that) and Olds sent out a letter to Alero owners and you have to bring the letter into a dealer for a free fix. Make sure it's NOT working when you bring your car to the dealer though. I made that mistake and they didn't fix it and they threw out the letter.

no recall, just a letter that if its broken you can bring it in to the dealership and get it fixed free of charge.
