Sounds like an alternator issue. Could be corroded wires at the battery also. When the voltage gets low, things like these will shut down first. Having the flasher on for five minutes won't drain the battery. Jumping the battery put it above the shut down threshold. Have the charging system checked, before replacing the multifunction switch.

I had that problem on a 90 Metro. I found a plug located on the top side of of the fuse pannel under the dash came unpluged.

The headlamp switch will cause the lamps to turn off. The switch heats up and turns the headlamps off. It will cool down and work for about 10 minutes and cut out,

I think you need to replace the Body Control Module (BCM), My newly replaced BCM (used) fixed my wiper problem but created a new problem which the left turn signal is not working now. Time to sell the van.

you have a separate flasher for the turn signals.this is what your problem sounds like.if all your lights are working including the signal indicator on the dash then it will be the signal flasher.if you turn on the hazard flashers and locate it under the dash, this will show you what the turn signal flasher will look like.then you will have to look for the flasher unit on the fuse panel that looks like the hazard flasher.replace the turn signal flasher and you will have your signal flashers again
