Turn signal flasher reprogramming information

During operation of the turn signals, if the lights flash faster or slower
than the normal rate the vehicle has an electrical malfunction. The turn
signal flasher can be reprogrammed by a dealer or qualified technician.
The flasher may need to be reprogrammed if:
• If the battery is disconnected, discharged, or a new battery is installed

or

• the ignition switch was not in the OFF position when the trailer tow

connector was disconnected.

When the vehicle is used to tow a trailer, the turn signal flasher will
recognize the additional lamps and will flash at the normal rate. The
ignition switch must be in the OFF position before disconnecting the
trailer tow connector to reset the flashers back to the factory-set speed.
Failure to do this will result in the turn signals flashing faster indicating
a burned out bulb.
