Default Turn Signal issues

Hello All-I have a 2000 C5 with about 25k miles on it. For the past few years, my turn signals [both left and right] intermittently worked. Usually, I can 'trick' them into working by depressing the hazard button. That trick didn't work as of today and the signals are working less and less often. Any ideas/suggestions?

You need to change the hazard light switch and you will be good to go. Very common problem.

Thank you. The hazard switch located on the dash above the radio [not the turn signal housing on the steering column], correct?

yes, you can pull the knee bolster down under the steering column and reach up there to grab it
