My guess is a blown fuse. Had mine do the same thing a while back. I can't remember wich one, just one of the ones in the cab.

Its the blinker relay. The large silver relay that is in the fuse block in cab. The reason it blinks with your hazards is because the hazards have their own relay for blinking, and the turn signals have their own relay. There will be two side by side, im not sure which is for the blinkers and which is for the hazards tho.

I had the same problem with the right blinker on my Wagoneer. Everything else worked fine. Just needs a thermal flasher. They're like 4 bucks and take about a second to change. It's a round plastic or metal thing on your fuse panel near the bottom left.
