Default All my lights work, minus..

Driving yesterday and went to make a turn, all of a sudden, my blinkers were out. Weird thing is all my other lights work, that being my headlights, brake lights, parking lights, AND even my hazard lights. My blinkers don't even turn on, nor does the arrow's on the dash show up when turning on your blinkers.

Has anyone had this problem? if so, how did you correct it?

Thanks.

Okay, you know if he had to tear apart his steering column to find the problem? Hopefully thats just the problem and i don't have to buy a whole new Multi-Function relay... stealership wants 79.00 for it

Default flasher?

it could also be your flasher in the fuse block, these have a separate one for hazards and blinkers so you could have a bad blinker flasher but your hazards would still work.

they are all controlled by the same 1 in a 97 and up. it's a flasher relay under the dash on the drivers side plugged into the end of a harness. your 4 ways will be the last to quit working. but they will eventually go as well. it's a cheap relay at advance auto. the last 1 I changed was like 17 bucks. for the guy who's stop working only when it's cold. yours is the same problem. they will eventually stop all together. seems to be a common issue with the 97+
