I bought a 1988 Cadillac Seville. The tun signal switch is broken do to the fact that the former oweners daughter broke the switch. Is there any way to fix the switch with out replacing the whole column. Another question I have is a friend of mine has a complete colum for this car but he lost the keys to it can I replace the ignition switch to a switch that is not coded?

The arm to the turn signal switch is loose in the colum the arm is still there but you really have to fight with it to make it work. And the control for the high and low beam for the head lights are controled by the same switch but beeing that they are controled by the same switch I can not switch from high to low beam.

Where is the blinker relay at on a 03 cadillac seville sts

Turn Signal Lamps
The TSIG/HAZ fuse in the rear fuse block supplies battery positive voltage to the flasher module. The module is part of the hazard switch assembly. The flasher module has ground at G201. The turn signal lamps may only be activated with the ignition switch in the ON or START position. The IGN-1 fuse in the rear fuse block supplies battery positive voltage to the turn signal switch. When the turn signal switch is placed in either the left or right position, current flows from the turn signal switch assembly to the flasher module. The flasher module then sends an on-off voltage signal to either the left or right turn signals and their instrument cluster (IPC) indicator. When the hazard switch is pressed, the switch contacts are close and the turn signal/hazard flasher module hazard input is grounded. In response to this input, the turn signal/hazard flasher module supplies battery positive voltage in an on and off flashing pattern to all the turn signal lamps. This also activates both turn signal indicators. When a THEFT is occurring, the DIM grounds the turn signal/hazard flasher module hazard input. The left turn signals have ground at G401 and at G402. The right turn signals have ground at G401.

This video will show you how to do it. Don't worry about the VATSS parts, your 1988 doesn't have it, but the process is the same. You will need a couple of special tools.
