Where is the flasher for turn signals located on a 1998 Chevy silverado?

The flasher relay for a 1998 Chevy Silverado is typically located under the dash, on the driver's side. However, it's not always in the same exact spot across all models. It might be:

* In a fuse block: Look for a fuse block with several relays. The flasher relay is usually a small, square or rectangular unit.

* Behind a panel: You may need to remove a small access panel or trim piece to reach it.

The best approach is to:

1. Consult your owner's manual: This is the most reliable source for the location of the flasher relay in your specific Silverado model.

2. Look for a diagram on the fuse box cover: Sometimes the fuse box cover itself has a diagram showing relay locations.

3. Use a wiring diagram: If you're comfortable with automotive wiring, a wiring diagram for your truck will precisely pinpoint the flasher relay's location. These can be found online (often for a fee) or in a repair manual.

Keep in mind that some repairs require professional assistance. If you're not comfortable working on your vehicle's electrical system, it's best to take it to a qualified mechanic.
