when i turn on a turn signal nothing shows on the dash. and my right turn signal is a little dim when on. i replaced the bulbs and still nothing.
is it the flasher or something else.

Had the same problem and i fixed it last night. One side was not working and i swich bulb to see if it was the bulb and no change, both bulb were ok. My problem was the socket itself that the bulb goes into and screw on the dash. I just bend the litle tab to make it tighter and it work. Make sure your electrical layout on the dash is not bend or misplaced so when so screw the connector it does have a good contack with it.

I would go ahead and replace the flashers. Are the turn signal lights (front and rear) blinking? If they're not it sounds like a flasher problem to me.
