    You dont need to tear up the dash to get at that module. Its within reach from underneath.

      if it is the flasher module and i get to it. does anyone know how much it is to replace?

      Just checked Advance Auto's website. Somewhere between 10 and 12 bucks.
      Haha, the OP also threw a wheel bearing question in there a few posts back

        ^^ Yeah, just went back and noticed that. :roll:
        As to the OPs question about not having the spacer in place being a problem, the answer is yes, it will be a problem. The lifespan of your bearings will be greatly reduced, because they will not stay where they are supposed to stay. If that makes sense.

          Ok. I called who helped me do the wheel bearing because he ended up doing most of the work. I myself dont remember putting that back in there.

            Any more detail on where it is? Where is it located if I can get to it from underneath. Could you possibly post a picture where it is at. My friend from Napa priced out a new flasher for me already for $12.00. Getting it tomorrow.

              Once you pick the part up and know what it looks like, I'm sure you'll be able to locate it where MONSOON has described

                  Found the Flasher. The one I ordered in turned out to be the wrong one but I replugged in the oridinal one and it started working again. Bad connection i guess. Got the right one being ordered in as a back up. Thanks for the help.
