Default turn signal switch?

Now my turn signals dont work. They work for a little while then they all stop, right/left/hazards. All the other lights work. Now I went and searched for some answers and I saw a post that said maybe ingition switch? if so where is that on my car? Or is there a relay for the signals?

the ignition switch may be a problem but not likley, there are relaysfor your turn signals. the relays may be getting hot and sticking open, i would check them before you do any thing about the ignition switch.

well i figured it out, its a loose connection. I found out today that the where the signal switch is loose. I never knew that before so I start messing around with it. and all the signals/hazards started to work. They cut out again but rarely but then I got it to work. I tired tightening the torx screw with a t 10 but helped a little. So is it worth it to buy a used signal switch and having them install it, or wait till this one dies out if it doeS?

to replace the turn signal switch do I have to remove the whole wheel? I noticed it has 2 torx screw on top do I remove those and not the wheel?

Some you can remove after removing the covers.
Some you have to remove the wheel.

well the cover i pulled off a little bit. and it fixed it for a little while but then it stopped all of a sudden. So I dont think the wheel has to come off but im not the mechanic. I will bring it to his shop my mechanic and see what he says thanks.

one more thing on my car is the fuel pump realy white? I know its stamped, but I dont know the color. And when I put in the new flasher relay, i saw a stamped date that said 1-30-90 and since that part is original I would like to change it.

Yes the fuel pump relay is white.
It looks almost like a double wide relay.
