Default BLINKERS FREQUENTLY DON'T WORK!

I just installed my stereo now too long ago, now i'm having problems with my blinkers in my car. I have no clue why this is going on. I had to run a power wire from the accessory switch so the radio would come on. Anyone have any problems like this before or anyone know how to fix it?

From the key switch or from the passenger floor board fuse panel? my guess would be either a wire is frayed or no longer physically well connected/terminated or a fuse isn't making connection across the terminals in the panel.

I agree, sounds like a short or bad connection. Check that first, then if that doesn't work check the blinker relay.
