2001 S10 with a 4.3L, owned it about a month and noticed recently, the left turn signal flasher on the instrument panel along with the ABS light was on constantly. When attempting to use the turn signal, it would flash rapidly and the gauges would go dead. Truck still runs great. NOW, the ABS light and Brake Light come on flashing every 2-4 seconds ONLY while driving. The turn signal still flashes rapidly, but the gauges still operate normally. The alarm does not sound, but the remote still unlocks & locks the doors. The ABS light and BRAKE light do not come on when the truck is at idle or stopped at a light.... any help would be huge.

it's probally a bad wiring job with the alarm. I would be conserned about the abs flashing a code. I do not know how to clear the abs code with an diagnostic cose reader. resetting the comp may clear abs codes.

the reson I'm saying it may be a problem with the alarm is you have no siren and some alarms are wired into all the systems your haveing problems with.I assume cense you've only had the truck a month the truck came with the alarm so you don't have a warrenty on it. check you wiring to the alarm and make sure the alarm itself isn't messed up.
the rapid flashig indicates a blown bulb or bad socket it one of the turn signals so check the bulbs and sokets as well

by the way, welcome to the site

when i had a similar problem (air bag light flashed, turn signal thing, flashers were focked too) it ended up being the multiswitch for the 4ways. try taking a look into that. i know it was my problem.
