My 01 Impala has a turn signal issue. Most of the time when I turn on the signal (left or right) I get a buzzing sound instead of the signal working. The lsignal light stayes solid when the buzzing begins.

Do the hazards work? Sounds like the flasher is going out

The hazard switch is the flasher as well, it is integrated.I cant find any specific instructions on replacing it in my software.I would suggest getting it and seeing what you are dealing with, to do theturn switch th esteering wheel has to come off which requires a pulller. Also need to disconnect neg bat and wait about 10 minutes before the air bag can be removed. The hazard switch may be replaceable by removing the top and bottom column covers.
