Using SEARCH would be to your advantage on this. There are thousands of threads and several choices on fixing the problem. Here's just the first three that came up.

Most likely culprit is a common problem whereby your in-dash flasher unit is going bad....possible corrosion in the switch or worn out.

See where your hazard light switch is? That's it.

Some buy the bypass that mounts under the dash near the steering column. I did the "remove the console and radio" fix and then just rerouted my new switch to the footwell so I can snap a new one on anytime without removing anything. I used the old switch just to hold the button so it looks good.

this oughta do it.

It could be your switch/stalk as well. Most likely the other. Others will chime in as well here......
