No left blinker
So a while ago my left blinker stopped blinking, the light just stays on. My right blinker still works. Tried to fix it by replacing both bolbs front and back, still didnt work so i changed the flasher and it still does not work. Any other things i should replace to try to fix it?

Originally i thought it was the flasher and changed out for a new one still didnt work. Havnt replaced the mast ever.
I can signal manually for now but not when my lights are on. Just trying to avoid getting pulled over.

What Freegdr is trying to tell you is that there are 2 identical flashers under the dash. If you replaced the one for the hazards and not the one for the turn signals, your problem could still exist.

sorry. when i took my bulb out, the connection behind it was pretty gross. the bulb broke when i pulled it out, so i dont actually know if it was shorted or the bulb was burned. we just got a foot of snow up here and i was foolin around in it when the blinker stopped working/stayed on. i guess it could have gotten wet since my fender liners are out...cleaned it with contact cleaner and bingo.

Here's an abstract thought. Don't take it too seriously..but you think the wrong flasher got replaced?? Just a guess.
