Default Turn signals suddenly dead?

I suddenly have no turn signals when I turn left or right. This started the last time I started the car. Hazards DO work. I purchased a new signal flasher, but I can't tell where it is (many items look alike in driver's area kickpanel). Can someone here tell me exactly which one it is?

Also, could it be anything else? Bulbs are all OK with hazards on (I did have a bulb out last month - quick flashing signal at the time - replaced the bulb). Is there something else that controls the flasher that could have died? I'm hoping it's just the flasher.

Thanks!

check your combination switch.. the arm that you use to signal, that could be old and damaged. although those never usually fail, i guess its possible.

good thing you checked the hazards, because those can easily test the bulbs and flashing unit. the hazard switch is usually the root of the entire signal circuit! so if thats working, thats a pretty big releif.

Hmm.. I dont think they are Brian. The signals and hazards are all part of the same circuit and use the same flashing unit.

all im saying is check the fuse located in the kick panel(if you haven't) .. and the Hazards and signals ARE seprate just becuase the hazards work doens't mean that the turn signals will.
