2008 Chevy colorado turn sig

[Bitter Clinger]

A Denver PD officer was nice enough to let me know that my left hand turn sigs are not working, he really did just let me know! I changed the bulbs and fuses, there are no flashers that I can find. I'm at the end of my rope here. Any tips?

Does it flash with hazards?

Get the owners manual out of the glove box,and look up the location of the turn signal relay, or get a service / repair manual for your truck.
Haynes even has online downloadable ones.

Thanks Kyle.
Could be a couple of things.
Are both the front and back signals not working? Or just one not working?
Could be a multifunction switch, or even a bad bulb socket.

It may also have separate fuses for left and right turn signals.

No it does not

From what I have found it looks like it's a $400 part, that has to be programmed for mu truck. SMH

Need to see a diagram. Some late GM's have relays one for each side along with a fuse for each side. Since it does not work with the signal and the 4-ways. Just looked and there is a fuse for each side. Start there.

Unfortunately some of those modules have to be dealer programed- proprietary software that is not released to general shops.
Fords are like that as well.

Here's a diagram of the turn signal/ hazard light circuit. Most likely the BCM took a crap on you, but can't be sure till you check voltage, ground, and continuity of particular circuits. Hope this helps a little..

Must be low on blinker fluid. There is a sale going on at NAPA.




if not bulb or fuse then it looks like some digging around as others have said

[Bitter Clinger]

Thanks for the help guys. Im 99% sure its the bcm. Last thing to check is if there is a short in the wiring. I'm not paying $400 for a F'ing turn signal. I'll stick my arm out the window, it's free.
