Turn Signal Relay

I would like to locate the turn signal relay in the 03CLS. Does anyone with a Helms have the location schematic?? Or a picture/specific description of where/what this thing looks like?? The blinkers have been acting kind of funny.

I searched and I do know that it is on the drivers side underneath the steering column, in that fuse area, but I'm not sure of its physical description. Don't want to dislodge something else and create another problem.

Any insight would be appreciated,
Thanks.

It's under the drivers dash. On the backside of the fuse box. It looks like a black little box just like any other car relay.

I found two Black relay boxes on the rear of the drivers side fuse box:

a.) one small black rectangular relay box at the very top; it has 'Tyco' and some kind of number printed in white?? This one appears to be a challenge to remove due to the confined space.

b.) one larger black square relay box at the very bottom; this one does not have any markings on it?? It is a little more reasonable to grasp in an effort to remove.

I don't want to experiment and go pulling on something that is not the objective.

Therefore, can anyone tell me specifically which of a. or b. above is the turn signal relay??

Thanks in advance!

it very easy to figure out

unplug the easy on while you have your hazards on, key doesn't need to be in the ignition for that. if they hazards stop you found the right one, if not put it back in and try the other one

nothing can happen to the car doing it like this

rbf351,
Thanks,
That's a great idea! I never thought of that approach. That was my concern. I did not want to have to turn on the ignition, power up and then find out that I pulled the wrong relay. Which inturn could have caused some unforseen damage. I would rather be safe then sorry, if you know what I mean

Thanks again, I'll give it a try!

Should be the smaller one that's not easy to get to with the white lettering.
