I JUST RECENTLY BEGAN HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY 2000 CHEVY MALIBU AND IT PROMPTED ME TO BEING RESEARCHING COMMON ISSUES WITH CHEVROLET VEHICLES. IN MY RESEARCH I CAME UPON AN INTERESTING FACT THAT SEVERAL MAKES AND MODELS SEEM TO HAVE INTERMITTANT TURN SIGNAL FUNCTIONALITY AND HAZARD LIGHT ISSUES. IN MY CASE MY 1995 CHEVROLET SUBURBAN (WHICH I LOVE MIND YOU) WAS BEING CHECKED FOR A TRAILER TO BE HOOKED UP. WHEN THE PERSON PERFORMING THE INSPECTION ATTEMPTED TO TURN ON THE HAZARD LIGHTS IT CAUSED A MALFUNCTION WITH ALL OF MY TURN SIGNALS, BREAKS, HAZARDS(NO EQUIPMENT WAS ATTACHED TO THE TRUCK SO NO IT WASN'T A FAULTY CONNECTION TO THE TRAILER, THAT HAD NOT BEEN ATTACHED YET.) AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES OF MESSING WITH SIGNALS AND PUSHING BUTTONS IT FINALLY RESET TO NORMAL. THIS FUNNY WIRING PROBLEM OCCURS EVERY TIME I TRY TO TURN ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS. UP TO THIS POINT I HAVE NOT HAD A NEED TO USE THEM BUT I AM AWARE THAT THEY WILL NOT WORK IF I ATTEMPT TO. MY ADVISE TO ANYONE READING THIS...
