turn signals
I have a 1997 chevy s10 blazer four door that just started this problem.I got off from work and started home and when I put on the turn signal their was no click from the flasher and no indicator in the dash for either side so when I got home I checked the fuse and it was ok so I went to the parts store and got a new one and put it in and that lasted about 2 days and know I have no turn signals again and the fuse is ok.Not sure what else to do for this any help would be nice.thanks alot

RE: turn signals
Have you tried changing your blinker fluid?
Questions:
1) what part did you replace exactly? You said the fuse was ok, so you went to the parts store and got a new one? A new what?
2) when the blinker did work, did it flash very quickly, or was everything completely normal?
2..a.) If it was all normal, you might want to consider replacing the relay.

RE: turn signals
It is quite possible that the multifunction switch is the problem, but we definitely need more information on what exactly it was that you did to get it to work again.
And that blinker fluid is the best available!! Even better than the ACME synthetic!

RE: turn signals
Some of the Blazers did have issues with the turn signal multifuntion switch. I believe there was a factory TSB for this. The dealer may give you a copy of the TSB which would describe the problem and the solution. I'm not sure but there may have also been a silent recall on these too(meaning if a customer brings one in with this issue they would fix it for free but no public recall notice is issued)

RE: turn signals
Sorry guys for the forgoten part that I replaced.I replaced the flasher for the turn signals and that allowed them to work for about two day.When you say the relay may be bad where would this be located.I plan on checking the wires for this sunday in my dads shop to see if their is a broken wire but dought that it will produce anything.I did goe out today and their is no clicking or indicator lights in the dash but all lights and indicators work fine with thefourwayflasher and parking lights work fine also.Is their any way to wire around this until I can get this fixed.

RE: turn signals
When I did replace the flasher the turn signals worked fine like they use to.When I first noticed the temp outside was around 20 and no click and no lights but it warmed up to around 50 and the flasher would make one click sound and still no signals.Checked it today and still no signals and no click from the flasher and it is about 38 outside.THIS MAY NOT HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH IT.But I have had the drivers door actuator to work and not work which is probably the latch is dirty this has been like that since I bought the blazer.I have tried to keep things up.I have started to get parts in stock at the house so that I will not have to run to the parts store to get them.So if the relay is the problem I will be able to get it fixed easy because I have then here.

Where is the turn signal relay located? It sounds like it clicks behind the vents above the radio....

If I remember correctly, in the early 2nd gens (95-97) the flasher unit located in the dash below the radio.

If the relay was done then the hazards wouldn't work would they?
