Where is the turn signal flasher on a 1991 Buick Regal?

I just did my Mom's 1991 Buick regal 3.8L. I removed the kick panel underneath the dash above the brake pedal. Follow the brake pedal arm up on the right side of the pedal. I used a mirror to spot the flasher unit. The flasher unit is held by a spring clip with the top of the unit pointing down. Just pull the flasher out of the clip and pull it down.

When Using What if your turn Signal You Should?

Your question makes absolutely no sense. However, I think you may be asking what to use if your turn signals do not work. The answer is to use hand signals.

Where is the flasher unit on a 2002 Dodge Durango?

The flasher unit is behind kick panel between the steering colume and emergency brake release cliped to its own hanger. It's a small black box measuring about 1.5"by 3"and it controls both turn signals and emergency flashers.

Where is the turn signal flasher located in 1995 holiday rambler RV?

RV manufacturers usually locate the flasher under the dash near the steering column. The easiest way to find it is to turn on the turn signal and listen for the click. You will also feel it click when you touch it. If the flasher is not working or does not click, turn on the four-way flashers and try to find that flasher. The turn signal flasher is usually located near it.

Hope this helps.

Turn Signal Flash Rate Determination

First here is a primer on how the flashing of turn signals is caused/controlled.

Almost all vehicular turn signal flashing is controlled by a special relay commonly called a flasher.

Inside the flasher relay is a self-actuating switch in which one of the two contact points is mounted on the end of a "bimetallic" [made of two dissimilar metal layers bonded together] strip of metal.

As electric current [measure in Amps (A), or milliamps (mA], flows through the bimetallic strip, the current flow causes the strip to warm up.

The two metal layers in the strip have different "coefficients of thermal expansion" resulting in one side of the strip lengthening faster than the other.

By design, that causes the strip to bend from the heat, which results in the one contact on the strip being moved away from the fixed contact, and thus opening the switch.

This turns off the current to the turn signal circuit and lamp [bulb], thus turning it off.

As the bimetallic strip cools down slightly, it bends back to where it started, thus closing the contacts, energizing the circuit, and causing the turn signal lamp filament to turn ON.

As long as the turn signal control switch on the steering column is closed, the signal flasher relay will continue to cycleopen and closed.

Now to get to the basic original question as to why a turn signal will blink faster, or slower.

The answer is that the rate of the flasher cycle is directly proportional to the amount of current [Amp or milliamps] flowing through the circuit.

The amount of current is caused by the size and conductivity of the filaments in the lamps, and/or the number of lamps in the circuit. The larger the lamp filament the greater the current and thus the flash rate.

The more lamps, the more current flows, thus heating the bimetallic strip faster, and causing it to open, turning off the lamps.

One of the best examples of this is that when a trailer [with turn signal lamps] is added to the turn signal circuit, the flash rate will usually increase, unless the flasher is rated "heavy duty."

For those whose cars and trucks have ordinary flasher relays and who don't like the rapid flash rate resulting with the addition of a trailer, they can replace the standard flasher relay occasionally referred to as a flasher "module" with a heavy duty one.

Would your 2005 Cavalier's rear right turn signal be covered by warranty The car is 14 months old and you have a 5 year 100000 km Powertrain Warranty?

This would be covered under the bumper to bumper warranty which expired at the end of 12 months or 12,000 miles. Powertrain is the engine, transmission, & differential. What powers the vehicle, nothing more. I believe there may be a recall on them. I have refered a couple customers to the dealer because they were within the 36,000 mile/ 3 year manufacturer's warranty prior to the recall and they had them fixed.

How do you change the rear turn signal on a 2001 Sebring LX?

Remove the 3 plastic wing nuts in the trunk on the side you have one burnt out...pull the lens cover off from outside the car...twist the harness for the light that is burnt, pull out the bulb...replace the bulb and reassemble.

Why Hazard lights do not work?

Have you checked for the flasher unit for hazards not sure where to find it on a cherokee.

Why only turn on the front signal and the back signal no turn on?

if the front signal is working and the back doesn't, the light is probably blown.

How do you fix it when turn signals do not work but flashers do?

The signals and the emergency flashers have separate circuits, separate fuses, separate flasher relays. Start with checking the fuses, the bulbs, the signal flasher relay and wiring and if it still doesn't work it may be the signal switch is bad.

Can you get signal under water?

yes you can,

hand signals can be seen clearly also phones work underwater so you can definitely get signals! ;)
