sounds like it might be in your steering column if everything is working except your right turn signals or right side 4-way flashers....maybe even check for a good ground on the right side inside the the light housings.

Some of these parklamp/taillamp sockets are plastic and replaceable. Do either bulbs on the affected side light up? A burned out bulb at the rear, will cause the front bulb to light up, but not flash. There are two flashers behind the dash...one for t/signals, one for the emergency flashers.
