Default Blinkers sometimes work sometimes dont work.

Im assuming my hazard switch switch is going out? 95% they will work then they will just stop working. Any input on what is going out?

Wasn't the hazard switch for me, it was the multi-function turn signal switch. I trouble shot it from the turn signal light backward thru the fuses and relays to the connector under the steering column. Removed the switch from the column, disassembled it and found some of the contacts were in need of some emery cloth and readjustment. Total cost...$O dollars, but about 2.5 to 3 ours of my labor.

I pressed the hazard light button. Then checked blinkers and they worked again. So im assuming it has to be the switch going out?

In most cases it is the 4 way flasher/ Which is a pain to replace,What I did was install a new Hyper Flash harness and that took care of my issues, Get ahold of JWMotoring.com a vendor here and he can fix you right up.
