Hi guys, after days of hunting I think little green men beamed down one night a stole my turn signal flasher. Must have needed it for the warp drive or something??? I'm old school with one for the turn signal, and one for the flashers???Any help will be greatly appreciated. Dave

Hello,

Well, the little green men would have needed this complicated turn signal system of your vehicle, haha.
The turn signal and hazard are controlled by the SAM (signal actuation module). It is located under the hood on the driver's side.
See diagram below for reference.
There are places that can actually rebuild those modules as they can be hard to come by.

Let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
