if bulbs prove to be fine check the relay. if possible swap it out with one that is known to work..

how are they not up to par

you select the direction and it stays solid or just no light on the dash or outside?

yup.

I checked all bulbs. that was the first thing I did... They are all good.

All communication flashers flash with 4way. THe left hand flashers work with left selected on the tree. The right hand flasher does not work with it selected on tree. I just purchased a new relay. Now where is it located???

I hope its not the tree?

Thanks guys!

remove the wood panel where the shifter is, unconnect the window switches. it is located up under the ash tray and its kinda fun to get out then in.

study the new one and look for something like it works as well.

but I told you the general area so that should help also

What's your year and model? Unless we know that, we can't give you an exact location of your relay!

what you removed is the right part (looks like what I removed).. the new one is not.. check the fastlane place or wherever online you buy parts for the flasher relay
