      Replacing Flasher in first gen aveo

      Hey guys, I am just wondering, how do you replace the flasher relay on the first gen aveo? Where is it located?

      I found these LED flasher relays that fix hyper flash that you would get when using LED bulbs with a stock flasher relay. This brings me to my second question. Please check out the link i post below, it shows all the flasher relays i found. Which one should i buy for the aveo?

      I don't have an answer for you right now but I am hoping to be educated. Why do you want to replace the standard flasher?

      the reason i want to is because i found Electronic LED Flasher relays online that make your turn signals flash the correct speed with LED bulbs. The LED bulbs take less power than a regular bulb so the oem flasher relay makes the LEDs flash twice as fast as a regular bulb. The Electronic LED Flasher relay will correct this problem. Also, have a look at the Electronic LED Flasher relays i found online and from that list could you tell me which one the aveo uses? Thanks

      Oh and one more thing. Is there only one Flasher relay in the whole car?

      I would use the PIN Diagram and compare the replacement flasher with the one installed in your car.

      Good question. Have you tried the fuse box located on the left/driver's side of the dash board?

      I have a 2005 Aveo LS. The flasher for my car is located in the fuse box on the left/driver's side of the dash board. It is the one that is on the right side of the fuse box, third from the top. Good luck.

      Finally got one of these relays in the mail today. It took me a minute to figure out which one to pull. It's the top one and its colored gray. Fixed the problem and I am very pleased.
