Electrical problem
1991 Buick Century Two Wheel Drive Automatic 185000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
I bought this car used and ever since i bought it the left turn signal wont flash but when i bought a flasher and went to put it in there wasn't a flasher there to replace or any place to put one in. So i went to the store and bought new bulbs and it still doesn't work what should i do? also i checked the fuses on the car and none were blown what so ever but the right side works fine on it.
I just fixed a similar problem on my 1994 Buick Century. The flasher was bad. The 1991 and 1994 models may be different but I found the bad flasher unit on the end of a long wire under the dash to the right of my steering column. The wire was long enough to extend down to my brake or gas pedal. My wire was an easy find but perhaps your flasher unit is way up inside the dash. I'm guessing you could trace it from the thick wiring harness or turn signal. Good luck and I hope this helps!
excellent input, older GM's usually have them way up on a clip on the side of the steering column, I almost gave up on a corsica because I couldnt find it, until I stuck a mirror and a flashlight under there and caught the reflection of the silver fuse. i never thought it would be up that far.
