2000 SS Blinker Issues Sup guys. I'm having an issue with my blinkers in my 2000 SS. The problem is they won't blink on/off, on/off and so on on their own like they are supposed to. But, if I repeatedly push the lever up and down manually the arrows on the dash will light up and both signal lights in the front and back work. They just won't blink on and off on their own. Is there another fuse besides the one in the side panel that controls the blinker? That fuse looks fine so I don't think that's the problem. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

change your blinker fluid...
Seriously though, it can mean one of your four blinkers is out. If all bulbs are fine, underneath the dash on the right side, there's a little area that looks kinda seperated from the rest, in there there's a cylinder, thats your blinker. Go to any autostore and you can pick up a new one.

^^it should be noted that the replacement blinkers may blink even though a bulb is out. So effectively replacing the blinker unit itself will delete this feature. Your factory one may not have been defective but was simply letting you know that there was a bulb out. I chose to keep mine as it does do its job pretty well.
