Default Turn signals - PLEASE HELP

I am having a problem with my turn signals..... They work 80% of the time just fine......... then every now & then they just dont work. I hit the turn signal and nothing.......... no clicking, no lights flashing, nothing... I just know I am going to get pulled over sooner or later.

Anyone else ever have this problem??? and how the hell did you fix it?

Thanx boyz.........

it's your hazard/emergency light flasher that has gone to chit.

you can replace it with a new one that will eventually fail or you can get the flasher bypass harness and an electronic flasher and never have this problem again.

To verify this, the next time te turn signals stop working, try pressing the 4 way flasher button a few times, then see if the turn signals start working again...

And the bypass harness and electronic flasher are much easier to install than replacing the flasher itself!!
