Turn Signals

[bnight04]

Okay My turn signals f*ck up. They only go on some of the time. Then most of the time its nothing, it sometimes turns back on when I hit the hazards but most of the time those dont work either. I looked at the fuses and they are fine. When I push the stick forward to lock the brights, that doesnt work either. wtf can this be! I am getting really sick of it.
Post up any ideas...

hazard switch recall, take 'er in and see if you're on the list, if not just buy a new hazard switch and put it in...problem solved...well 9 times out of 10 that is

^ what brad said!

hazzard switch recall huh? hmm so I will take it to carmax where I got it I guess. I dont think I am underwarrenty anymore though. We will see

recalls have nothing to do with warranties. recalls are issued by manufacturers so that you can get a free repair. Also, this technically wasn't a recall, so don't expect it to get done by the dealer. however, it is a cheap fix to do it yourself.

[bnight04]

Well would I still go to carmax to get it fixed? Or shoudl I just buy the part and do it myself. (which I dont have a clue how to do, maybe if there was some directions or somethin)

[AlbinoMonkeyRat]

take it there first. if they can do it, sweet deal. if not, it's really simple. the only tool you need is a flat head screwdriver.

all you do is pry out the button trim and the button. carefully unclip the button from it's bundle of wires (haven't looked in a while, it's a small bundle though) and replace the button and put it back together. no unscrewing, no ungluing. it's a sub-2-minute job.

Had the same problem the hazard switch messes with the signals.

[bnight04]

thats stupid

[goshawk99]

Ok, I am having the same problem. I called dealership and they said that the hazard switch has been replaced. Can it still be replace by recall or am I SOL. I am assume if it can not be fixed that I can easily replace the switch.

[doubleN0alero]

well maybe they f'd it up the first time

[goshawk99]

Well, I have to give you an update.... it pays to blow off steam to GM Canada. I decided to use the GM website and a service rep came back explaining that it should be taken care of. Today, I went in the dealership, talked to the service manager and he still stated that it will be not fix. I said that GM Canada made it clear that it will be fix. Well it is fix as a recall so no charge. Seems the dealership does not have the last call....

If you are not happy with your dealership answer, go back to GM...

[Cliff8928]

The dealership practically never has the last call. The dealership is merely like a franchise. If GM gets enough complaints about a particular dealer they will pull their line from that dealer. In a way it's worth it for GM to fix your small problem just so that you consider to buy another GM vehicle for your next purchase.
