Its a tough job that requires special tools. Remove the air bag. Remove the steering with a steering wheel puller. Remove the air bag position sensor. The steering wheel lock plate needs to be removed with a steering wheel lock plate puller. Then the turn signal switch can be removed by snaking the wire harness through the steering column. Not as easy as it sounds.
the blinker switch shorted out the brake lights... really really common problem, need to replace the switch

The blinker relay is broken. It is located inside the hazard switch. Replace the switch and it will fix your problem.
Hi, Is your blinker actually flashing on and off? If not it may be your hazard switch. I had to replace mine.
probably your blinker switch (multi-accessory switch). The high mount brake light is wired directly from the switch on the pedal but the rear two lights are wired through the pedal switch and then through the the blinker switch on the steering column. Almost all of those blinker switches go bad.
Take off the panel under the steering column. Turn on your turn signal so you can hear it, and then search for it haha It's somewhere in there. It took me quite a while til I found mine, but it's there. I think you can also feel it when you touch it so you don't get it confused with the hazards.
its the hazard switch, its all one unit
replace a windshield wiper switch on a 1995 chevy lumina van
the relay is located within the hazzard flasher switch. If faulty replace flasher switch and it will sort out the problem
your problem could be in the switch its self. unfortunetly they are expensive to replace, i had to actually wire a switch direct to the blinker system.
Try and replace the blinker switch. Iits a round thing under the dashboard on the fuse panel. It should be clearly marked.
Blinker switch defective. This is not always the case. You could have one of many problems. Flasher bad, bad bulb, bad connections.....please check these before you go and replace a blinker switch.
