Default 4 way flasher

The front passenger lights do not flash in 4 way mode. They do work otherwise. Any ideas? Thanks

Put your blinker on passenger side and try it again. Made mine work not sure why or what causes it.

I think he's referring to the turn signal.

Turn signal work OK. Tried them and 4 way many times. No change in the 4 way problem. Does the flasher itself have contacts used for the 4way? Any electrical diagrams available?
