Re: turn signal probmles.

Probably a dumb question, but did you check all your bulbs? A burned out bulb(s) can stop the flasher from working and turning on the hazard lights will make up for the loss in amperage allowing the flasher to work.

Burnt out bulbs..When you replace them do all (3) it will save future work tearing the backend apart. You need (2) p/n 1156 & (1) 2057. The pins are different on the sides.
