2004 Suburban repair -- life is good

[JRD77VET]

With everyone's horror stories of ****upedness with wrenching, I thought I'd share the "trials" of replacing the flasher unit in the dash of my 2004 Suburban 1500 LT

My left turn signal has been acting up sporadically and after some google search, it looked like the flasher unit was the culprit.

Found a Youtube video showing the replacement with disassembling the dash and "knee knocker" panel so I ordered a flasher off ebay.

Took an entire 7 minutes from start to finish to complete the repair. :dance:

Life is good :toast:

Here the video I watched

The video runs 9 minutes and I completed the replacement in 7 :rofl:

That's what I was expecting too. Turned out the "new and improved" flasher unit is $80 :willy:

My Silverado radiator swap is down to about 20 minutes. Practice makes perfect with those stupid plastic tanks and crimps.
