Hi the turn signals on my 2003 Chevy malibu only work correctly when it's daylight and headlights are off. When the headlights are on and I turn my turn signals on, all 4 flashers come on, albeit one side dimmer than the other. My daylight running lights are not working. Probably why they work in the day light. here's what I have done with no success. Changed the Multi function switch, changed the 4 way flasher unit, replaced all bulbs, replaced both rear light circuit boards. Checked all fuses, checked the relays and also the Resistor. Hope this makes sense. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I would probably look for a bad body ground for those circuits. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.

WOW!!!! That was quick, thanks. Yes I will try that next. Just on my way out to buy a Test Light. I forgot to also mention that I have no horn (works with wires directly from the Battery) and the cruise control only works intermittently. Not trying to sneak in a new post here just wondering if they are connected somewhere in the circuit. Thanks again HT.

A single bad ground connection can effect many different things. Look around the radiator support for the ground wire. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional.
