Just got a new 93 notch. It's bone stock...

But, the left turn signal doesn't flash. It just stays lit (on the signal indicator in dash & the bulb.)
The right signal blinks & works fine.
The hazards work fine.

I thought it was the fuse or bulb. But, replaced them all & it's not that.

I think it could be the blinker relay...

Anybody know what my problem could be?
Anyone know where I can get a new blinker relay? NAPA didn't have one...

THANKS

With a mechanical TS flasher, if a side is stayin on constant, it suggests that there is not enough draw on that side of the car (the current heats and cools a bi-metallic strip in the flasher, which is what makes it flash).

Ensure that all marker/flashing lights come on with the hazzards. Ensure all bulbs are of the correct wattage (in the first paragraph, an example of a light that might not draw enough current is an LED bulb, which draw almost nothing). An electronic flasher can help your situation if you have custom bulbs and the flasher is not rated for the current anymore.

Good luck.

Where can I get the parts to upgrade to an electronic flasher?

Just did a Google search, couldn't find any for an 87-93 Stang...

Try calling your local parts store. In the old days, turn signal part numbers related to the number of bulbs needing to be powered (so the flash would be pulsed properly). WIth electronic flashers, that's not a concern. Just a couple of variants of E-flashers are out there - it mainly just needs to plug into the connector.
IIRC, Tridon and the Bussman folks make them (for two). They're about 10 bucks and a decent upgrade. (As I recall, 94+ stangs have electronic flashers, for instance).

Good luck.
