Turn Signal issue...FIXED

My 96 C36 was having intermittent issues with tuen signals that just got worse to the point of failure.
I pulled the combo relay

looked for bad solder....

couldn't find a bad solder, so I ordered a new one from Autohausaz.
voila!!! Everything works

Guess a new part beats all other looking and scratching around on a dud part...

What were the symptoms of your turn signal issue? I had something similar recently and switched out the emergency flash switch in the dash console. I am assuming this relay you replaced is under the hood??

First issue was turn signals especially left engaging 40-50% of the time, then eventually hazards all together were non functionall ( I use a lot when picking up kids from school))!

yes it is located under hood directly under driver side hood hinge, its the fuse box but it is under neath the actual cover.
You have to remove 6 or so Phillips head screws to take top of fuse box off, the combo relay is easily visible.

I live in Oklahoma City and we are limited on our w202s in junkyards!!! You could score one for $8-12 bucks, but I figured $40ish for a new one is worth it!!! Not being able to signal drives me nuts!!! Not very safe for other drivers!!!
