Activate the 4-way flashers. This might work, temporarily. This problem has had a factory recall. Go to a GM dealer and see if they'll fix it for nothing. Apparently it involves changing the hazzard switch in the dash.
The turn signals are controlled through the hazard warning switch. I have an 01 Alero and had the same problem. I had to replace the hazard warning switch. The dealer wanted like $90 for the switch, or you can try a salvage yard, which I did and payed $10. Hope this hepls.
Hi..I recently had troubles with my alero, and it was the intake manifold gasket, which i guess is a common problem with 2000 alero's...i would get that checked out
Hi, I had this problem on a 2000 Alero. Had to disconnect the battery to shut it up. G.M. replaced the horn relay to aleviate the problem. Duke
SAME PROBLEM WITH AN 04 ALERO. NOW THAT COOD WEATHER IS HERE IT TAKES A LONG TIME, DOWN THE ROAD, BEFORE IT WILL SHIFT INTO OVERDRIVE ? ? ?
It's probably a problem with your catalytic converter.
The RPMs and the engine of the 2001 Oldsmobile Alero might surge if there is a problem with the oxygen or fuel sensor. It may also surge if there is a problem with the fuel injectors or the fuel filter.
I have a 2003 Alero While it sits in the sun for hours it will not start up and when the sun goes down it will start what could be the problem
i to also have a 01 alero had the same propblem was told it was the speed sensor replaced it and no more lights i to also have a 01 alero had the same propblem was told it was the speed sensor replaced it and no more lights
This happen with my 2000 Alero. I finally found a small damp spot on the fuel injection solenoid. I had the solenoid replaced and that fixed the problem.
I have same problem in 02 Alero.

There was a recall for this problem... I have same prob and just found out about this. There is a problem with the hazerd flashing warning lights switch-- it may experience solder joint cracking caused by rapid temp transitions & the soldering process. If the solder joint cracking occurs & results in an open cicuit, the turn signals/ hazard lamps become intermittent or inoperative. Dealers are supposed to replace warning switch- contact Oldsmobile at 1-800-630-6537
