turn signals not working???

[leakyfaucet]

My turn signals stopped working. Before they did, the flashing speed would fluctuate from very fast to slow. I can turn the hazard lights on, and all the bulbs work. I checked the fuse, also good.

Any ideas?

it is likely the flasher relay. if not, check multi function switch operation and wiring. a new flasher should do it. good luck finding it. should be around the fuse box or under the driver side dash somewhere.
good luck.

I see a couple boxes, and a few little gray things that look like relays in the fuse box. Nowhere in the manual or the repair manual does it show which relay is which. What exactly am I looking for?

Thanks for the help.

I just went through this last week. My 90 L.X. Had the turn signal flasher behind the radio on the pass side below the glovebox. The flasher was blue in color. I replaced it and the flashers work fine now.

retro, thanks for the additional location info. it seems that they are scattered throughout the cars in different locations. i had not heard of one that far east. good info.
i havent done a fox flasher relay, but normally they are little silver cylinders, not a box lookin deal like a bosch style relay.
good luck.

Hmm... How does it connect? Are there two connectors on either side or what? I'm really not sure what I'm looking for. Any chance anybody has a picture of it?

Thanks again for all the replies.

It's definately the flasher, mine is located behind the radio on the passenger side, it should look like this :

Thanks a bunch! I pulled out the one in the fusebox only to discover it controlled the hazard lights. I found the one under the glove box for turn signals. I pulled the hazard light relay (because they were identical) and put it in the turn signal relay temporarily.

Thanks again!
