I turn my blinkers on and the car dies so i replaces the multifunction switch and i needed a jump too get it startes it still dies and now it wont start.. any ideas what i can do next i hear the ignition switch. my car is a 1998 buick regal GS

I would check the wire harness plug for the combination switch where it connects to the vehicle harness under the dash. A bad flasher unit would not affect the by DNSUnlocker"> headlights or the wipers. You can rule that out. More likely is a loose connection.

Replace the turn signal switch.

the engine type dictates what wiring car has. (partly)



fix the stuck blinkers first. this implies, either ignition switch failure

or gross wiring errors, hacks gone wrong.

the key swtich does turn off blinker power feed.

Sounds more like the flasher to me,in the drivers side fuse panel
square box ,looks like a relay , 5 male spade connectors on back.

Sounds like you need a new multifunction switch. Something in the switch is not releasing properly.

I have had this before. Once I turn the key to the st position for starting I turn it back a click to the on position and everything works.

you need a new multifunction switch

Disconnect or remove bulbs untill you can get a new switch

diesel or gas engine. if you have a power stroke, look at powerstroke.org

By the discription just about the only thing it could be is the multifunction switch, this is the turnsignal, wiper, blinker, bright light, and cruise if it has it switch. And it is not verry simple to replace. The steering colum needs to be taken apart to replace.
