Default Instrument Cluster / Signal Light Flasher.

I pulled my Instrument Cluster and sent it out for all new Step Motors and Lights.

ww.chevyspeedo.com/

$95.00 + Shipping.

The Dash is all pulled. I await its return.

While the Inst Panel is out and the Dash pieces are in the trunk, ... I want to replace the Signal Lights Flasher.

Do I order a Hazard Button Module or is there a secret Flasher hiding someplace?

The hazard button is the flasher module. Personally, if it's not broken, don't fix it. You may end up doing damage to the bezel it's in during removal based on how GM manufactured the bezel. There is no suggested maintenance or time of replacement on this module.
Just my 2 cents.

I had to remove the bezel to yank the Inst Panel for sending-out for New Gauge Step Motors.
The Hazard Switch got pulled-of the rear of the bezel. The four mounting-points broke-off.
I'm going to have to get creative re-mounting the Switch.
I'm figuring 2-ton 5-minute Epoxy to remount the Switch.
Getting a Flasher Unit in the aftermarket.

I got a great deal rehabbing the Instruments.
95-bucks for New Motors, Lights and LED's.
Sent the Inst Panel to:
CE Rimmer
3033 State Route 554
Owensboro, Kentucky 42301
Ph 972-215-7777


If this is the right Flasher, ... I'm getting one.

Re-installed my reconditioned Inst. Panel, today.
Absolutely delighted.
Best $115.00 ever spent.
Fuel - Temp - -Speedo and Tach operating like brand new.

Broke the mount for the Hazard Switch.
Eazy fix.

If I hadn't pulled-away the Hazard Switch mount, ... the job would be a 2-hour fix.
