Getting the Wheeling Fever
Cant explain it but my turn signals just stopped working today. I checked the fuse and its good (I replaced it to be safe) The switch feels tight and connected well to the steering column. Any one else had this happen...I'm not much on electrical so i would hate to follow the wires...any thoughts? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Thanks,
Drew

If the signal turns on, but doesn't flash on-and-off, check to see if one of your bulbs is burned out. If the bulbs are fine, it may be your flasher relay, located under the dash on the left side. It could also be your hazard-light switch, but check the others first.

Emergency flashers work fine. I'll check the relay. Thanks!

Flashers can work and turn signals not, and the problem be the hazard switch. If Capn's other suggerstion don't find the problem, then his last on the switch would be your next.
