Turn signal anomaly

Help ! I drive my 2004 fx4 every week day all day around the city of Edmonton , over the last week or so my turn signal has been failing to flash and just sticks to a solid light and then just as strangely it will start to flash again on friday night they stuck on to a solid and would'nt flash so I went to a dealership and in the service bay as i described the dilema to the service people we tested them and they flashed ,,,,, So has anyone else experienced this ?

Sounds like a dying flasher. Sometimes they will just have a solid light instead of flashing.

did you check your bulbs externally? i know when one goes out, the signal flasher flashes real fast to alert you something is amiss.

Yeah, solid usually means buy a new flasher. Flashing fast usually means check your bulbs.
