Default Turn Signals

Anyone have this problem? My turn signals in my 2001 Vette quit working and I've been able to get them back by turning the flashers on and off. That seemed to work till last night on my way back from Des Moines IA. I did that and they would work once then quit again. I had a opportunity to turn on my high beams but it wouldn't go. The left lever was like frozen and wouldn't go forward. I played around with it and finally got it to go. Now the turn signals seem to work again. What do you think is going on??

Not uncommon - - I think the flasher control module is behind the radio.

I am having the same problem. I already had a hyper flash installed but still having the issue.

I decided to replace the switch did so yesterday.

However the issue came back even with the new switch. I did a reset and it has been fine since. Drove the car few times yesterday and today and they seem fine.

Not sure what I will do next if the problem comes back. Maybe replace the wire or the hyper flash.

As far as the procedure to replace I did find it easier to come from under neath. There is not much room up there so be patient but you will get there.
