My 2001 zo6 had this problem turned out it was a defective hazard flasher switch check your switch the next time your signals start in hit your hazards see if the signals start working if they do it's the hazard switch

I had the same thing happened to me. 350+ bucks to fix. 
Good thing I have that extended warranty!

Yes, it's the hazzard switch. I changed out mine and the turn signals now work all the time. Noticed the marking on the replacement, "Made in England." I wonder if the manufacturer is Lucas? For a former Triumph owner, that explains the rash of failures!

I have a 2000 as well with the same problem.I just went in the garage just now and tried pushing in the hazards about 10 times and abraaa ca da braaa my signals are working again.Mine were totally not working.I have saved tons of money just checking my problems on this site before going to a dealer and getting raped.I took the advice when my column locked in a parking lot and just put some elbow grease to shake the column free saving a tow to the dealer.

Oh, yes, "abraaa ca da braaa," that'll work for a few hours/days.
Eventually, as in about a month or so, they will stop working completely. Poof!!
No choice but to replace the hazard switch. Sorry.
