I need to replace a fuse in my 1996 Chevrolet Blazer to get my blinker working again. How do I know which one?
I need to replace a fuse in my 1996 Chevrolet Blazer to get my blinker working again. How do I know which one to replace?
I do not have an owners manual and there is no guide in the fuse box any longer. Can someone direct me to a link online where I can determine the correct fuse?

check your owners manual
usually on the fuse box cover has a diagram of what all of the fuses are and their location. also in the owners manual it will give all of the details of what fuses are and where they are located. it will also give you the detail of how many amps the fuse needs to be. you also have a relay for the blinkers “flashers” it could possibly be the relay and it too will be on the diagrams.
If you’re trying to visually inspect the fuse box to find the right one you’re going to want to shine a flash light on the colored portion of the fuse. You should easily be able to tell which fuse is burned out because the fuse conductor will be broken in the middle just like a burned out light bulb.
You can also follow a wire diagram available online for free in most cases but I’m guessing you’ll spend less time and energy doing it my way!
Once you find the offending fuse remove it with a pair of needle nosed pliers as they’re usually seated firmly in place. Most owner’s manuals will recommend that you pull the negative cable from the battery but I say, save yourself the ten minutes and just pull the plug using the pliers and replace it the same way with the exact same amperage fuse.
They’re listed in the owner’s manual. On some cars, the fuse circuits are listed on the underside of the fuse panel cover. Last ditch, try looking for the blown fuse. Unless you’re having a bad day, there will only be one. Just pull them one at a time and look for the one with the melted filament.
Do not replace it with one of a higher rating. Just use the same rating as the one you pulled. If it keeps blowing you’ll need to troubleshoot the short circuit.
Ideally they’ll be labeled. What you want to do is pull out each fuse, one by one, that you can’t be sure isn’t the right fuse. Look at it and see if it’s intact. If it’s intact, it’s not the fuse to replace.
A fuse labeled “A/C” or “gauges” doesn’t need to be pulled out. A fuse labeled “lights” or “signal” might be the right one, so pull that one out to be sure.
A blown fuse is very easy to detect. Look at the picture I linked to. Notice the melted, broken part on just left of center?
Call your local Chevy Dealer. They won’t charge you to call them to find the diagram for you make of vehicle. You are going to do the work you just want and need a diagram. If they do not have one they will know where to find it through their company data base in most instances. That year of Blazer was very popular too. There are lots of them around. Look for a used car dealer (if you can’t get Chevy to help) and see if he has a Blazer on his lot sitting around. In this economy you are more likely to find one.
If worse comes to worse, pull each fuse until you see one with a small break in the middle of the metal circuit and replace it with the same size. It is always good to do this every 6 months any way because sometimes you never know until something else breaks. Refer to the pic from the above answerer. You see that it looks like an H. Well where the cross line on the H is, that is usually where it is burned or broken. Pull it out and replace with same number. It is still a good idea to call a dealer about where you can find a diagram though and put a new one in or be able to make yourself a new one, even if it is just a laminated card to keep in the glove box.
you could pull each 1 until you find the 1 that,s burnt out.
