Turn signal flasher

Hi, I searched the forum, but had no luck so far. I own a 1977 F-150 camper special with a 460. My turn signals don't work and after checking the fuse I purchased a new flasher for it. I looked everywhere (i guess not in right spot), but I can not locate the turn signal flasher. I have found the hazard flasher that was hanging right in front of the fuse box, but I had no luck finding the turn signal flasher.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Found it right after I posted this thread. Unfortunately the replacement flasher did not help. I guess it's the switch.

OK, I'll bite. Where is it? The hazard can is in plain sight, as you noted, but I just had my head under the dash and did not spot another.

It's tugged away on the left side, right below the light switch. I was not able to see it, but could feel in to the left below the light switch.

I know you said the fuse is good, but do you actually have power at the flasher?

O.K. The flasher has power. Unfortunately I am not an electric guy to figure out the next steps. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

There are TWO different flashers. One for the turn signals, t'other for the 4 way emergency flashers.

Left (lower): 13350 T/S flasher / Emergency flasher located adjacent to instrument cluster.
