Blinkers Not Working, WTF

Less than 48 hours from track day at Byron and what do you know, my car has a problem, neither blinker has worked as of first start up today. I havent investigated at all but im hoping its just the flasher, again (replaced 9/2/2010). If anyone has any other ideas please chime in. Car is a 1994 Trans Am btw

If it isn't a flasher. Check tail light ground. Usually only affects one side or the other

does anything else not work thats also located on the multifunction switch?

My wipers and that all work on the switch. both blinkers are no go but i will check the grounds tommorrow.

I doubt the grounds are bad on both sides... If you replaced the flasher once before Id start there.

Probably not. Looks like ill just have to swing by autozone on my way to work and get another flasher

Do the bulbs light up just not flash?

you dont NEED blinkers.........just use arm signals

That could be your problem right there. Go to the dealer and get yourself a genuine AC Delco flasher. It will cost you a few bucks more, but how many times do you want to do the job?

+2 blinkers are for panzies

dumbass, you didn't even check the blinker fluid did you?!

^ I run synthetic blinker fluid so that cant be the problem. moparkid is probably right on the money. My hazards arent working either..and the flasher controls those too

well I was going to ask you if your hazard switch is working right most signals inop I see are from a bad hazard switch. now yours is the old school style but they are also known to get dirty inside the column and cause issues just like the old smoking column the old cars had when the signal is on coming off the hwy

I put in a new flasher firday night and problem solved.
thanks for all the input everyone

&^^^^^^ didnt see you at byron????

yeah what's up with that

Im sorry about that guys.
My passenger backed out friday afternoon and I couldnt find any one else on such short notice. Byron is like a 3 hour drive from waupun and it would have been really lame driving alone. Plus College Gameday was in Madison so I stuck around.
