98 Lumina Stop Lights & Turn Signals

[Buller]

My 98 Lumina this weekend lost its Turn signals & Brake lights. I have checked all Bulbs & Fuses. The High stop light is the only light that works which in turn tells me that my brake switch is still working.

I have checked continuity at the rear harness connections to the lights & bulbs & everything there checks out good. Any help would be greatly appreciated? I'm Stumped

I have this same Problem with this car. The problem started over the period of a week.

At first there was intermittent failure of the Left & Right stop lights while the center stop light would work.

Currently the Left & Right stop light do not turn on at all now. The center stop light still works.

The switch has been checked with a meter, and is good. Wiring to the lights is good. Bulbs are good.

Another problem that developed at about the same time as this one is intermittent ability to use my blinkers reliably. The right blinker works more reliably than the left but both have intermittent failures.

The failures are exhibited as fast blinking, or no blinking at all.

Generally, jiggling the stick and trying agian will get the blinkers to work.

Any help on these issues would be appreciated. From my searches here I have seen a few people with similiar problems unfortunetly I did not turn up a resolution and so must ask.

Thank you all in advance.

your problem is the turnsignal switch in the steering column. I have replaced many of these switches for this problem. hope this helps.
