4 Wheel Drive/SUVs: 93 Blazer Turn Signal, turn signal switch, s10 blazer

Question
The turn signals on my S10 Blazer aren't working.  I noticed that the fuse for the turn signal is burned out.  When I replaced the burned out fuse it immediately burns out as well.  I replaced the relay on the turn signal last year.  How do I go about tracking down this problem.  Thanks

Answer
Jim,

Sounds like you have a dead short in your turn signal wiring.  I would start by seeing if your emergency flashers are working.  You may have a separate fuse for that circuit.  If they work, you may need to replace the flasher again.  If not, then start tracing out the wiring from the fuse block to the turn signal switch.

You should purchase a repair manual from you local auto parts store for the vehicle.  These are great if you want to do any trouble shooting, maintenance or repair yourself.  They are quite reasonable, costing around $20.
