Default ‘82 CE signal issue

Inherited a 1982 Collector Edition, has more issues than I was aware of. Starting this minor refurb with the signals. First, the left blinker isn’t blinking, check bulbs, rear build burnt out, so I replaced it, thought all was good. Took it out a week later, left turn indicator still not blinking, check bulbs, all are operational. Move on to blinker relay….. where the freaking crap IS the relay? Look on line, I read, here, there, over and under there, over the river and through the flipping woods! Can someone please tell me where it is for sure? And PLEASE don’t send me the picture of the dash all torn apart with the relay hanging on the pink wire, and tell me “it’s right there, just look here, it’s so easy to spot!

Do you have an owner's manual for your 82?

Not yet but I’m going to order one somewhere this weekend. I know it will help, as I’ve had them for past vehicles.

A lawn chair makes it a lot easier to access the fuses.

OK, now that...IS funny, but a neat idea.

BTW to My82CE. The GM service manual WILL be your next new best friend while owning a CF car. Are you also on ACE by chance?

OK. Arizona Corvette Enthusiasts, (ACE) look them up, they are local to the valley and have a forum as well. They do a lot of things together.

I’ve tried to contact a couple of Clubs in the valley, but no response as of yet, it’s been almost a month.

I see you found ACE and made a thread there on your CF. Sun City huh...That's Peoria to me, I'm in Gilbert. You are across the planet from me for sure, 55-60 miles across the valley. You are MUCH closer to L-46man, he's in Snobsdale.

yeah, I keep forgetting there’s more life out that way! With the price of gas at $5.00 a gallon, I’m not sure I even want to drive my Jeep 15 miles down the road!

I feel the “snobsdale”! Lived in that area when I first moved here in ‘05. Not my kind of people. I’m a off roading, Harley riding , pew pew loving outdoors kind of guy.
