Default C5 Turn Signal issue

I have a C5 convertible. The turn signals have quit working. Anyone had this issue?

Common problem-- you can fiddle with it and it'll work intermittently or you can get a new one . . .I ordered one from Vettenuts and had it in 2 days for about $20 - -

Default turn signal problems,,

hey guys
If the hazard switch is the problem would I have rear signals and lights (exept for 3rd light on top) and no front turn signals?

Here is a thread about how to remove the MFS:

Used to be a good thread with pics on the Forum on how to rebuild the MFS until Photo Bucket screwed the world.
Thanks so much for the feed back,first time using this site, and I am so glad I did,, the thread you gave me set me in the right direction,,, YOU ROCK!!! John,,,

I replaced mine about a month ago.
Indicators:
1) No brake lights except 3rd light
2) No turn signals

I pulled the center console, ac control and radio. I could reach the switch with some difficulty but better than pulling dash.
