Hazards work like normal. However my signals don't blink, they just stay solid.
I did some searching around and found other people have had the same problem but there were mixed answers.
I have been driving around manually turning my signals on and off every turn, its getting annoying... haha
lol, i could just picture you doing them manually.
IIRC, flashers and turn signals use a different flasher, give me aminute and i can run out to the car and see.

I just looked, only seen 1 flasher, which leads me to believe it's probably the switch. Unless I missed something.

Yeah, all my friends laugh at me when I signal
haha
So its not the flasher then? If its the switch how do I go about changing/fixing that?
I think you have to remove the steering wheel to change it out. Take off steering wheel, remove plastics covers on the steering column, and the switch is right there with a few screws holding it. If you were close I would tell you you to come on over and take mine, and my flasher. My car seems like a parts car now a days, got parts off it on 2nd gen cavs, monte carlos, and chryslers. lol

haha, that's awesome. It still seems weird to me though. If its the switch, wouldn't the lights not go on at all?
You don't need to remove your steering wheel. Just take off the plastic steering column cover (top and bottom) and that will give you access to the switch.
Are you sure you don't have a bulb out? I can't remember on the J's but on my old Buick when I had a bulb out it'd just stay solid and I did the same as you manual turn it on and off til I replaced the bulb.

Yeah, but you can only get that from the dealer... and they would charge you up the butt for it.
I would at first swap the relay and see if that fixes it. If not, then return the relay and tell them it was broken and you want your money back. (only if they tell you that you can't return it because it is an electrical part.) Replace switch if relay does not work.

Don't do this. The parts guy is your friend. Treat them with respect and you'll be amazed at how cheap your parts get. What you've just described is a seriously scumball move.
