Wss initially told that the problem is the water pump. I replaced it. Still no go. Was informed of another possibility- a problem with the wiper/turn signal control arm attached to the steering column. Shop wants to replace. Is it reasonable that the blown fuses are caused by a defective wiper control arm?
Really?! the water pump?! the water pump has nothing to do with your wipers it is part of the COOLING system. as for your issue...it could be a short in the wiper/signal arm in the steering column, or it could be the motor in your washer fluid bottle. the motor is what pushes the fluid through to your windshield and if its gone bad it will blow your fuses as well. i would start with the washer fluid reservoir motor and go from there

you have a short in the circuit somewhere. look for a wire that has been rubbing on something or has come lose and is grounding out.

Check your local library for a Chilton or Haynes repair manual (mine has lots for older Chevys)....if the repair is anything like my 89 C1500 was, you will need the detailed instructions the book gives and maybe a special tool to remove the steering wheel.

Sounds like the flasher unit to me. Normally the emergency flasher and turn signal are separate.

Hello there:
if you have checked the right fuse and it is ok than i would check the wiring to see if there is a break some where in the wire or if it is grounded somewhere also check to see if it has voltage going to the motor t if so than i would check the motor itself with the meter to see if it has high ohms if so than the motor is shot it does not have to be froze to be bad but if you dont have high ohms than the motor may be good but the pump itself may need to be primed ok?
I hope that this has been very helpful for you
best regards michael
