Turn signal ?

I have never had a problem like this before so I am trying to see what ya'll think.

My turn siganls don't flash when I try to indicate I am trying to turn. I finally got my car back on the road and tested all the lights and stuff and everything worked fine. The next day on my way to school I hit the turn signal lever and noticed that the arrow was not on. The normal clicking sound was not heard from the turn signal either. Outside not lights come on... I checked the hazard lights and the arrows come on and the outside bulbs flash when the 4 ways are on. All the other lights work...And the turn signals did work when I checked them the night before. What gives? Bad flasher?

It sounds like the flasher possibly came loose if the lights aren't turning on at all.

From: out of my mind; be back in 5 minutes....
Car: 1989 Firebird Formula
Engine: Internal Combustion
Transmission: Completed
Axle/Gears: ones that turn.
Possibly a bad flasher, if neither side works. Check your reverse lights (key on)...if they don't work either, then it's probably just the TURN/BU fuse blown, they run on the same fuse.

I don't have any reverse lights...When I changed transmissions, I never rewired the reverse light switch...That was too much work for lights you don't really need, IMO

Thanks for the ideas
