front turn signals not blinking

can someone please help me with this problem. my 1989 Firebird front turn signals ( the orange ones on top of the bumper cover) they are not working properly. the lights work fine because when i turn on my parking lights, they're lit up nice and bright. but when i hit the turn signal, they just stay lit up and don't blink. all the rest of my turn signals work fine, and these ones were even working fine for a couple weeks after i put the car back together. any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

That generaly means you have a turn signal bulb oout somewhere. Mine did that and I changed one of the front bulbs and everything worked fine

if the turn signal arrow comes on and stays on, the bulb is burnt out. if the bulb is good and it's just not blinking, go to an auto parts store and buy a new flasher. i think it's about 3 bucks, and it's right by the fuses underneath the steering wheel. kind of a pain to get to, but an easy fix.
