[b:46fc0b3f16]My turn signals just stopped working. I didn't check the fuses but did check the lights that are with the turn signal fuse, they seem to be working. Is the fuse for the turn signal by itself or as in the book it says the fuse is used with the liscence plate light as well? It has about 85,000 miles on it.

Thanks

Ok, if you select a turn signal, and "ALL" of the normal turn lights come on but dont blink, then replace the turn signal flasher. If one of the turn lights is out, replace it and see if they flash then.
I show the back up lights on the same turn signal fuse.

Suggested Repair

If all turn lamps light but do not blink, replace the turn signal flasher. If one turn lamp is out, replace that bulb and retest. The turn signal fuse is shared with the backup lights.

Conversation Summary

The owner of a 1995 Buick Century with about 85,000 miles reported that the turn signals stopped working. Related lights on the same fuse still worked, and the owner asked whether the fuse is shared with the license plate light. The expert said that if all turn lamps come on but do not blink, the flasher should be replaced; if one lamp is out, that bulb should be replaced first. The expert also noted that the backup lights share the turn signal fuse.
