Default Signal Light Problem, Relay Perhaps?

Hi I have a 2000 Corvette and my signal lights work and then stop working, all the bulbs are good and it is very intermittent, left, right and 4 way.. I was thinking it could be a relay but where is the relay for it? The fuses are good....

IMHO...Most likely it is the switch. A pretty common thing to happen.

I'd say its either the stalk switch or the hazard warning switch. Both are prone to failures.

A tip that was posted a while by another member is to lubricate the turn switch with some electronics cleaner. Its about $5 a can at radio shack. Give it a good squirt and it may clean it up enough to bring it back to life. If that fails, you need to replace the faulty swictc. As its just the T/S affected I'd start with the t/s switch on the headlight stalk.

Hi, How would I change that stalk switch and where do I get the part? The switch goes into the steering column, so not sure what to do?
