Turn Signal Flasher

[antonbrn]

Hi, I have a 2000 Buick Century and am having trouble with the turn signals. Sometimes they work fine, but other times instead of blinking, I only get a solid arrow (both right and left turn signal). I replaced the fuse and light bulb, but they still go solid about 70% of the time. I read that the turn signal flasher needs to be replaced, so I went to pep boys and bought one. Now I can't find the old one to replace it. Does anyone know where it is located? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Yeah I guess it would be hard to tell where it is at if it doesn't work most of the time. Normally all you have to do is listen for the clicking for location. It is supposed to be located left of the steering column. Towards the headlamp switch on the dash and below it. You can get it by removing the plastic access cover located at the left hand side of the dash as you open the driver's door.
