Replace Flasher Relay
Model: 2003 Ford Ranger XLT 2-Door Super Cab
My front right turn signal will not blink, despite the bulb lighting normally when the light switch is set to "running lights". The dash turn signal indicator flashes rapidly as if there were a dead bulb. After research, I determined that the culprit is the flasher relay. I looked for instructions on removal and found nothing useful. I inspected the mount thoroughly and felt no clips or screws. Assuming that it's retained with friction only, I tugged on it, but the force needed seemed too high (junction box was flexing heavily). I don't see any corrosion, tape, or adhesive.
How do I properly remove the flasher relay? Every video I have found jump cuts the money shot, which makes me suspect that this is a serious pain. I don't want to break anything.

Thanks for confirming the method of attachment. Now, I can move forward with addressing the stiffness.
