Default turn signal

I noticed on the drive into work this morning that my right turn signal wasn't flashing so I assume the flasher has gone bad. I'll look at my FSM tonight but where are the flashers located on a 95 coupe and is that the likely problem? The arrow lights up but just doesn't blink. Thanks for the info.

Your relay should be up under the driver's side dash. I'd look to see if a bulb is out first though.

Exterior turn bulb is out/busted or has a bad connection.

Default Almost always

It's almost always the bulb, one filament gone or bad connection in socket,could be front or rear.If both brake lites work it's probably the front ,don't forget front side marker.

If your left turn signals work, then the flasher is good. Flashers work on current. High current, very rapid flash rate, low current, slow or no flashing. During no flashing due to low current, the good lamps will stay lit. Turn your right turn signal on and look at the turn signal lights on the front and rear of your vette. You will likely see one or more lamps not lit.

Thanks to you all for the help. You guys were right on the money. I checked and one of the tailight/brake light bulbs was burnt out. Appreciate the tip. Things like this is why the Forum is a good place to hang out.
