Are you sure you checked the right flasher?
there are TWO of them.
One for signals
One for 4-ways

Dennis, I saw only 1, at the top left of where you plug the breakers in to. Is this the right one for the 4 way flashers. Where would the other one be? I did check all the breakers. Thanks for your help.

4 way flashers

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 10-Feb-02 AT 00:10 AM (EST)]Turn the 4-ways on and feel around for the flasher.
You should feel it click in your hand.
The other one you find should be for Turn signals.

One on the fuse box I think this is the turn signal flasher

One up /under the dash Left side> 4-ways

The book says :
The hazard flasher can be located in one of two places;it is either
located on the rear of the fuse panle behind the turn signal flasher or mounted on a bracket at the right end of the instrument panel.

the flasher for the four way flasher is on the back of the fuse box. there is two bolts that hold the fuse box on. take them out and turn the fuse box over and you will see the other flasher.

UPVFD30, thanks but the fuse for the 4 way flashers is not behind the fuse box I looked there. Mil1ion, I still cannot find that. I had the dash off trying to look down in there with no luck. I will try again this weekend. Thanks again

I think he was repeating was I said in the previous post.

If it isn't under the dash in a recognizable spot then,
it is probably BEHIND the turn signal flasher in the back of the fuse box where you can't just see it ,you have to remove it to get at the flasher.

He said the *flasher* as I did,not fuse.

I know it's a DUMB spot to put it But, I guess them's the breaks.
