The turn signal flasher and hazard light flasher are located above the parking brake release handle. They are behind the dash panel with the prongs facing the driver. The turn signal unit is above the hazard unit. They are nearly impossible to see but you can reach your arm up behind the panel and find them. Look at how the prongs are oriented to make inserting the new flasher easier. It is a 552 flasher unit. Bad engineering.

Where is the turn signal flasher located in an 87 El Camino?
Under the dash on the left side of the steering wheel. You'll see the fuse panel. There is a flasher on the front side that you'll see and one one the backside. They are both the same. On is for the turn signal, one for the flasher.

Cant find the turn signal relay switch on a 87 buick somerset
It should be up under the dash, usually close around the steering column. The turn signal flasher and the hazard flasher may look the same. If you turn on the hazard lights, you should be able to locate that flasher-it will be clicking, and if you hold a finger lightly on it, you can feel it working. That may help you find the turn signal flasher-often they are close together.

Hi. i have a 1980 chevy elcamino. turn signal light does not flash on right side. light does come on. left side works like normal. hazards work fine....i beleave one flasher works for both sides...any...
There should be two flasher controls in your fuse box, one for the hazards and one for the blinkers. If replacing the flasher does not work, a bad ground at the signals can cause this problem.

I need to know where the flasher unit is on my 87 Caravelle
Hello cmason1.
If you are speaking of the signal light flasher it is located in your fuse panel which is under your instrument panel on the left of the steering column.
The hazard warning flasher is clipped to the instrument panel below the fuse block.
I hope this leads you to your repair.

87 Jeep Comanche, turn signal issues
You will find that there are two flasher units on the fuse panel. Turn on the four ways to identify which flasher serves that circuit. Then, move the flasher to the other position (where the signal flasher is) Your directionals should then work. You then can buy another flasher and install it when you have a chance, putting it in the 4 way position. The 4 ways get used so infrequently, you always have a reliable spare signal flasher there!

Turn signal flasher keeps blowing
This is more than likely caused by a Bad Turn Signal Switch Housing inside the Sterring column. The one that the Handle is attached to and Wraps around the Sterring Shaft on the Inside of the Column.
