Where is the turn signal flasher on the 1994 buick century located?

It took me a long, long time to find this puppy...

Mine is located way under the dashboard, between the brake pedal and the gas pedal, hidden behind a panel.

To start, look under the dashboard on the driver's side, and there is a panel you can remove by unscrewing a few screws. This panel has a slot in it for the lever that the brake pedal is attached to. You will want to take the panel off, it takes just a couple of minutes and makes a huge difference in getting to the flasher.

When the panel is off, get upside down in the front seat, then look directly to the gas-pedal side of the lever that the brake pedal is attached to (i.e., look towards the passenger's side), and you will hopefully spot a little round can about 1" in diameter (or maybe a cube about that size). If it is just an inch or two from the brake pedal, and it has wires going to it, that oughta be the flasher.
