Default Speed Up Turn Signals

turn signals on these cars are VERY slow. slow inbetween clicks and the blink is super fast. its so slow its like dangerous. im sure no one else cares, but how do you speed this up? i think you replace the metal circular thing on the fuse box, right?

Ya replacing the flasher will help im sure and its very easy to do.Chances are yours is just worn out so a new one should solve that problem

I haven't had to look at the flasher module, but I know on my old Cavalier, you could twist the flasher to make it go faster or slower.

The one in your fuse box is for the 4-ways. The one for the turn signal is up inside the dash, just a little right of center, sorta between the console and glove box.

Yeah, I tried to change mine a long time ago when I didn't know a damn thing about cars and I replaced the one that was in the fuse box. The signals still didn't work after I replaced that one so I took it to the shop. They told me that I replaced the wrong one and changed it around for me and charged me $75. I felt like such a jackass, had to pay $80 for a four dollar part and 1min of labor [:@].
