Turn signals sometimes work sometimes don't but push hazard switch a couple times and they start working. Cruise controls works when it wants. Any ideas? Switch, flasher. When they work all bulbs and fuses function properly.

These are two separate problems, please start a new question for the cruise control problem. The problem with the blinkers is the turn signal flasher here is the location in the images below so you can change it out.

Removal Procedure

1. Remove the LH instrument panel (IP) insulator.
2. Remove the steering column tiller panel.
3. Grasp the hazard and turn signal flasher and slide the flasher to the right to release the flasher tabs from the slots on the BCM bracket.
4. Disconnect the electrical connector from the hazard and turn signal flasher.

Installation Procedure

1. Connect the electrical connector to the hazard and turn signal flasher.
2. Position the flasher to the BCM bracket, then slide the flasher to the left to secure the flasher tabs into the retaining slots on the bracket.
3. Install the steering column filler panel.
4. Install the LH IP insulator.
