The video was spot on! The only difficult part I encountered was removing the signal relay. It was more difficult to loosen and pull out than I expected.

Glad I found this video. I had a problem with my Silverado in which the right signal would work. But the left wouldn't. So even with the hazard lights only the right would flash. I installed this the same day I saw the video and it worked perfectly. Saved me big bills that mechanics were gonna charge me. Thank you!!

Thank you for this video SteveO, my 03 Tahoe was experiencing the exact symptoms you described . Local dealership wanted 85 to diagnose and 110 an hour for labor, (whaaat!) Went to the local part shop and pickup up the relay for 70 bucks and less than 20 minutes in my labor and good as new. I especially want to say thank you because the wife won't be hounding me to fix it anymore!!

This fix worked perfectly! Problem symptom: When I put my left turn signal on, both right and left signal lights flashed (just like when you turn the hazards on). Changing this part fixed the problem. It took a total of 10 minutes to complete the repair. Thanks for posting this video! Saved me $100-$150 in repair costs.

I had a slightly different problem when I hit the brakes, the left turn signal indicator (dash) would light up and stay solid. My left hand turn signal on the drivers side mirror would also light up when i hit the brakes. I bought this part and viola, ITS FIXED!!!! I have to cancel my appointment at the mechanic now!!! I've been trying to fix this myself for a month and finally found this video! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! Awesome video and straight to the point.

It is more commonly referred to as a TURN SIGNAL FLASHER at your local auto parts store. Part Number LM487 at Autozone or Part Number FC563 at Advance or O'Reilly. It will cost a bit more, but you won't have to wait on shipping. Great video though. P.S. In many cases, the flasher can be repaired. (It's just corrosion.)

My 2004 Chevy Suburbn was having problems with turn signals intermittantly. They would stop flashing when the brake pedal was pressed, and resume blinking after releasing the brake pedal.

The video is simple and gets to the point. The only change I would make, before putting the trim panels back on, make sure the turn signals work. Knowing Murphy's law, if I put all the panels back on, it won't work, On the other hand, if the signals still don't work, would would a person do next? I have a 2001 suburban , the four way flasher works ok but the turn signals stopped working. I'll order the relay and replace it. Thanks, well done.

The right turn signal in my 2003 Suburban reliably works but the left turn signal only works sometimes. Sometimes I need to turn the left signal on and off 3 times before they work, sometimes it takes more than that. Also sometimes I need to turn the steering wheel (at a stop at an intersection) a good bit to the left before they will work and stay flashing.

I will update you after I install the part.

I initially was only looking for the location but ended up watching the whole video. I'll have to get a flasher relay and put it in. 2 questions though. 1. Wouldn't you recommend people testing the turn signals before putting the panels back on? 2. What in the world are GM engineers smoking that makes them want to locate items that require removing half the dash to gain access to them?

our problem was no turn signal on both rear, side lamp and fronts flashed twice as fast. checked flashers, wiring grounds , bulbs ,all the above. no cure of problem. I work in a chevy dealership, they were scratching their heads. I work in the body shop. not a wiring problem fixer. I had several left over wiring harnesses from tail lamp replacements. plugged one in. bingo, left turn worked . tried the right one bingo, it worked. only problem, wasn't correct wiring as it had no side lamp. so I figured it was from the harness back and that left the sockets as wiring looked good. started to check sockets, from the top. it looked not correct down inside, metal connector contact points looked irregular. pried with a small straight screwdriver and pried gently around until looked like other prong. then looked at bulb. it had the 2 wires on each side. held the wire down at the loose end and gently pried a small rise in the wire, reinstalled bulb and plugged wiring back it. . bingo, worked like new. did same to other side and it fixed it also. hope this works for you because this is very frustrating when you try everything and still no cure.

I have replaced both my front and rear turn signals with LEDs and I have a Novita LM579 flasher equipped. My problem is when my headlights are on, both turn signal indicators light up and the turn signals stay on the high setting and dont respond when I go to use them or even the hazards. However, everything works when my headlights are off. Possibly a defective flasher? My truck is a 2003 2500HD.

Great video. Hi steve I have a question. I have a 2004 chevy tahoe I installed after market Led Tail lights. And at night I'm unable to drive the car because with the headlights being on. My tail lights stay off. I don't get it. If I hit the turn signal the signals work but they blink fast. If I hit the break light it works fine If I go reverse my led bulbs work fine. But when the car is on at night and the headlights are on. My tail lights stay off. Do you think replacing the Flasher Module can help solve this issue.
@stephenormsby3662
@stephenormsby3662 9 жыл бұрын
Sniper007Blue Thanks. The flasher relay is not the problem. You are dealing with two separate issues. Your directionals are blinking faster because of the reduced current draw of LEDs vs. incandescent bulbs. You will need to install resistors in series with the directional LEDs to solve this problem. See some links on this below... kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bLl4ZqidrcfKYmw.html kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a997n7SCqLPGp5s.html I can't say for sure why you have no tail lights, but I strongly suspect that you may have replaced a double filament bulb with a single "filament" LED and now all you have is the brake/turn signal filaments in the rear. The tail lights on your Tahoe share a glass bulb with the brake/turn signals (double filament bulbs). The tail light filaments and brake/turn signal filaments operate interdependently even thought contained in the same housing. Sorry it has to be so complicated. Good Luck.

It’s fun watching videos like this, in my opinion. It’s good to know how to fix older parts in older cars even though my car is a 2015 Buick Encore, which doesn’t use any clicker for the turn signals. It has electronic turn signals on it which are cool. But mechanical turn signals are cool too, in my opinion. I think most GM vehicles, older and newer models, are cool in their own ways.

I have a 2000 Chevy Silverado. Turn signals work fine...until I put on the brakes. Then, its like the 4 way flasher was utilized. Not sure if its the turn signal, brakes, or a relay

Brendakay I would start by replacing the directional relay. Relatively cheap and relatively easy to change out. Then go from there. Good luck.

I have a 2005 GMC Sierra which seems to work, but when I turn on the right signal it flashes the right turn signal, but it also flashes the brake lights too and if I have the cruse control on it disengages that too. The dealership who replaced the hydro boost last year said it was not a connected issue but that is when it all started. Would the replacement of this part solve these issues?

I don't believe the hydro boost replacement would cause these problems. If I had to guess, it may be the multi-function switch under the steering wheel. Warning there is an airbag in the steering wheel. Leave it to the professionals.

2006 Suburban... When my turn signals are activated (independently and 4 way), if i push my brake, the rear lights flash instead of the amber turn signal light. The turn signal just stays illuminated. I have narrowed it down to a directional relay, faulty multi switch or faulty turn signal/ cruise control switch. Do you think this relay is the culprit? Bulbs and fuses are new

I would first make sure that all your tail lights are grounded properly.

My 2003 Suburban Flex 5.3 is flashing the hazards when I hit the right turn signal. Left signal works fine. This is something that has come and gone for a while, but it's getting more common. I've also noticed sometimes if I get the hazards, if I flip to the left turn and flip back the right will work. Should I start with this relay or look elsewhere?? Thanks for the video! I'm going to ask this as well. I just called a NAPA and they cross the 10383320 with LM455 and that is $31. The 10383321 crosses with LM487 and is about $75. He says the more expensive one is for LED lights, which I don't believe I have. It also appears the $30 relay is the 3/6 option and the $75 relay is the 2/4 option. From my research the 3/6 is for towing a trailer, which I do on occasion, but have never noticed any issues with what I have, of course...maybe that's the cause of the failures....thoughts???

Brian, I would start with replacing the relay. They are know to be problematic. Make sure to get the replacement with the improved contacts. Good luck, Steve

I have a 1999 Chevy Tahoe with no turn signals, all fuses are good and all other lights are working including hazards and break lights. Does the 1999 Tahoe have the same directional relay as you have shown on the video?

It may be your multifunction switch going bad in the steering column. You can order a replacement and it may solve the problem.

I don't know if it would be the same thing but my husbands truck is a 2000 gmc sonoma, and when u turn on the right turn signal it blows out the fuse so the left goes out and the brake lights!

Possibly the flasher or you may have a short circuit in the wiring for the right turn signal. Try changing out the right turn signal bulbs and checking the bulb sockets for rust and corrosion.

Maybe you can help me with my problem... When I turn left my blinker flash rapidly but when I turn right they are normal. I figured the issue was with my truck needing new bulbs so I replaced the front and back on the driver side and the issue still occurred. The tricky part is, when I turn my emergency flashers on, all lights work normally....

Could a bad turn signal relay cause the brake lights to stay on? I'm having to same issue with the turn signals making the 4-ways come on, and when I'm braking and using my turn signals they won't flash on the dash,

I can't say for sure, but the contacts in the flasher are known to fail prematurely. I would start with replacing the relay. They are relatively inexpensive and not too hard to replace.
