turn signal question

Hello guys!

I have a 1990 F-350 7.3 IDI and I was noticing my turn signals were not working! I was wondering if someone could help me diagnose my problem as I am not sure what to check. Thanks and let me know if a little more info is needed

What does it do? Any blink or sound? Have you checked the fuse and bulbs?

flasher is a good idea to check.if when you hit the turn signals and you dont hear clicking and your fuses are good thats what i would guess.

I've had two turn signal issues with two old trucks. One a 62 GMC and the other my 85 F250. It was only one side though... Checked the usual, fuses, bulbs, blinker. Then I started tracing the voltage and I ended up in the column on the turn switch. Both times It ended up being the little rivet that attached the wire to the switch. Squeezed the rivit a little bit and all was well...
