Ok... I fixed it (for now).

The relay was under the center console zebrano. It literally took all of 10 minutes to pull it, fix it and put it back.

I pulled the ashtray, removed the 2 screws securing the ashtray bracket, removed the bracket, slid the zebrano back and pulled the relay out (it is in front of the shifter on the 85 model).

I then pulled the cover off the relay, opened the contacts, sprayed contact cleaner on the contacts and on anything else that looked dusty or greasy, reassembled the cover, put dilectric grease on the pins and put it back in.

It works perfectly now. I ran the flasher for about 30 minutes and went for a drive and ran the turn signal for about 5 minutes on each side. So, I guess I can call it fixed for now.

The relay is original and has 5/85 stamped on the side.
