back again a day later and with updates--i messed around with the fuse for the chime it checked out good...when i plugged it back in it chimed away so then i hit the hazards just to see if anything would work and wadda ya know there blinking again!! so i trird the directionals ..the left blinker does work now but intermittantly the right blinker works better than the left but is so so....better than sticking my hand out the window...i checked out my old switch and found that there was a worn out clip that holds onto and down, the switch as it travels..it was worn and a spring loaded contact beneath was pushing up..causing a no contact situation..i melted the clip with a solder iron into a lower position ..will install in my car this weekend and hope it holds for a while...so your saying what the hell does it all mean??? well i should have just bought a new switch assembly but at the time this all started out with replacing an alternator that was giving me a problem...how do you like my luck??? 2 problems occuring at the same time!!! my fix it twice curse continues!!
