There's 2 flashers under the dash, one for the hazards, one for the turn signals, check grounds, bulbs, tss.

There should be a fuse for the turn signals (not sure if that's all years); check that.

Ok well i got my blinkers fixed...i dont wanna admit this...but...i got to messing around with fuses before my blinkers stopped working and i pulled the fuse for the blinkers out and put it in a different spot(being i didn't have any spare fuses) and i forgot to put it back in the blinker spot...and well i figured the empty spot never had a fuse(being a few spots dont) so me being dumb never figured to check...so when i got extra fuses i figured i'd put fuses in every open spot(originally trying to fix my dash lights) and sure enough when i put a fuse in that spot my blinkers work now.lol
Thanks for all the help guys...sorry for my stupidity.
