Maw ran late forwork when I had to pull my landlord out of his driveway. Since all the lights work maybe something isn't telling my truck to blink the lights. Like a capasitor? I'm scared it's the wireing I don't need a bill. It was working fine last night. Maybe it is just the cold (crossing fingers)

Either a fuse or relay, worse case could be the multi-switch.

I know for a fact I have fuses. But I'm a 2nd gen so maybe they changed it. I dunno but it does exist.

The multifuntion switch terminates a resistance that communicate via the J1850 multiplex to the FCM which inturns tell the IPM to flash a light. Since yours sometimes works I don't think it is a fuse, but maybe a loose connector or corrision within the IPM. This may take a scanner to diagnose. I would make sure there are no codes and clean everything before going to the dealer....Moisture and cold may be the source of your problem.. Good luck.

What and where is the IPM? Plus where is the turn signal fuse? I looked at the fuse box in the engine and it's not there. It's ****** me off lol it works til the inside of the truck gets warm. I'm at a loss. I even replaced the multi switch and they both still don't work!!!!

Nevermind bout the ipm it's the fuse box. It can't be that cause it's only when the cab of the truck warms up so it has to do with something in there right?

The intergrate power module (IPM) is located under the fuse box forward drivers side under the hood. I posted some info from the manual on this thread that might clarify it some for you.

If the symptom changes with the cab heating up and you changed the light switch already than I would look at the wiring and plugs inside the cab. Good luck....
