Hello from new Zealand. I own 2000 C5 Vette.
Love my cars and have had some amazing hotrods also.
can someone help me, owned it for just over 1 year now, and are having to replace traffic hazard switch and turn signal flasher. Now I know this was replaced just before I brought the car. So is there a problem that I should been looking to fix this, so I'm not replacing every 12 months. Part costs me $100NZ, plus pulling the dash apart each time.
Thanks

Welcome to the Forum, Sharron, and congratulations on your C5!
This is more of a "Hello" section. You may want to post your question in the C5 sections of the forum at: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...s-1997-2004-2/. I would recommend this be placed in the Tech section. Lot of great members and helpful info to help you with this and other issues that may come up.
I am sure you will get lots more good information in C5 Tech, but one youtube that may help is:
Best wishes resolving this issue.

What are the symptoms? If you describe what the car is or isn't doing and when, it may give people an idea on what happening and what to check. Also include what you have tried. For example: turn right turn signal on and both front lights flash but only when it is raining.
