93 Chevy Lumina...The hazards flash when turned on as they are meant to in the front and back. When the turn signal is turned on (either left or right) only a green arrow shows solid for each direction. No light shows on outside for either turn signal. Is this a turn signal relay problem or does it need bulb replacement?

for both issues, could possibly be the flasher unit for the blinkers.....which could be separate from the hazard flasher unit...(happened on my 92 chevy lumina) or the actual turn signal switch which is located in the steering column....not the stick you push, but the part inside that the lever controls (also happened on my lumina............3 times)

TIP:

start by checking the flasher....its cheap maybe 3-4$ for a new unit.....if thats not it and you figure out its the switch, go to a junkyard.....its wayyyy cheaper

SOURCE: electrical problem

Find the ground wire on one of the lights and add another ground wire to a good clean metal surface and see if that fixes the problem. It defently sounds like a ground problem at one of the lights.

Have you tried replacing the flasher? You'd think neither side would blink if the flasher was bad but I've seen this happen and it turned out to be the flasher. You could swap the signal flasher with the 4 way flasher to verify that's the problem before going out and buying one. Should be a few bucks at the parts store.

SOURCE: how to replace front turn signal bulb

its easy. when the sinal flashes fast its just telling you a light is out. there might be 2 ways to fix this. open the truck look for the housing for the lights. now you may have to just turn the harnest where the wires are. or you just nee a phillps screw driver and unscrew the plastic cover off.

SOURCE: 99 Chevy Tahoe... Rear turn signals, brake lights, and hazards

I had this problem, and to be honest, it happened to the left side about a week later...it's the board that the bulbs plug into...it's a very common problem with this model. So popular that you can normally get the socket board off the shelf at a parts store! it's extremely simple to replace, and I replaced all the bulbs at the same time!

My 2005 chevy cobalt front LEFT AND RIGHT blinker bulbs are ON but don't blink while the rear Left and Right blinkers blink fine... Also inside it blinks FAST...

The turn signals are controlled by the BCM
Turn Signal Lamps
The body control module (BCM) is responsible for controlling the turn signals and hazard lamps. When the turn signal switch is placed in either the left turn or right turn position, the BCM receives a signal from the turn signal switch. The BCM then sends an on-off voltage signal to either the left or right turn signals and their instrument panel cluster (IPC) indicator. When the hazard switch is pressed, the BCM receives a signal from the hazard switch. The BCM then will send an on-off voltage signal to all the turn signal lamps. All the turn signal lamps will flash including both IPC turn signal indicators.

I would suspect a problem with the BCM or maybe corrosion in the under hood fuse box . Wires from the BCM to the front turn signals go through the underhood fuse box.
Your best bet ,take it to a qualified repair shop that has a diagnostic scan tool that can read BCM DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes
DTC B3948 Left Front Turn Signal Circuit
The body control module (BCM) controls the left front turn signal, hazard lamp, and daytime running lamp (DRL). The BCM supplies voltage to control the lighting functions. The BCM monitors the left turn signal lamp supply voltage circuit for proper operation.

Right turn indicator stays on

flasher relay under steering column does not work,switched it with hazard and see if it works,then get the new one,make sure the light on turn signal in front or back is not burned out first

Turn signal doesn't blink just lights up

You should check the bulbs first. Front and rear, park,brake and turn signals. I think you will find there is either a bad bulb or possibly a faulty socket. If those are fine it may be a flasher problem. You can find the flasher by turning the signal switch to the side that works with the key on and find the clicking flasher. Good luck!!!

Jeep - right turnsignal won't flash

Probably a bad ground on your front right signal, or a bad bulb. Try switching the right with the left, and see if the problem stays in the same place, or goes with the bulb.

No turn signals

flashers to cause signals to flash so yes that would be correct

1998 chevy lumina brake lights intermittent.

This is a classic example of turn signal switch failure. On GM vehicles with a multi-function turn signal switch and combination stop/turn/tail lights (all rear lights are behind red colored lenses except for back-up lights) The brake light power is routed through the turn signal switch. This makes it possible for the right rear light to function as a stop light while the left rear turn signal flashes, and vice-versa. When the contacts fail to remain constant the brake lights, and turn signals can become intermittent. The proof that the brake light switch is functioning correctly is that the high center (cyclops) brake light functions properly. Wiring integrity is verified if you can prove that turn signals operate, but that can still be intermittent with this complaint, BUT if you use your hazard switch to turn on all the signals at once, you can verify wiring integrity. This is because the turn signal, and the brake light use the same circuit, and bulb filament in the rear lighting assembly. If any Hazard lights fail to function, check bulbs first, then retest. If all Hazrd light flash correctly and reliably, bulbs, sockets, and wiring have proven integrity, and the turn signal switch is the remaining component in the system which needs to be tested. Unfortunately, this switch requires disassembly of the steering column for service, testing or replacement. If you have never disassembled, and successfully reassembled a GM tilt steering column, I would reccommend professional assistance.
