Blinker Problem - HELP
I have a 94 TA.
The left blinker stopped working a while ago. Then the right one stopped. But then every so often the right one starts working again. None of my lights are out in the back or on the front fenders.
My first idea would be to replace the back blinker bulbs... though I have NO idea which one is the blinker bulb since they all still light up! Do you know which I would have to replace????
Same thing with the front fender bulbs, how do I know if the blinker mechanism is shot?
Help appreciated.

if all the the lights work but just do not blink it;s probably your flasher. usualy when you ahve a bulb out the indicator light will flash at a different speed. and when the flasher is bad the indicator lights will be solid.
if thats what it sounds like to you throw a flasher in there. it's a 552 flasher at any parts store. i'll geta pic of the locatoin..

I had the same problem with my blinkers, my flasher was touching some metal under the dash and that was grounding it out so it wasn't toggling. Turn on the blinker and see if you can hear the relay clicking. If not then open up the under portion of the dash, since you said that it's intermittent the flasher might be hitting some metal, if you hold it in your hand and turn on the blinker it should work, otherwise get a new flasher.
Also if they are only coming on steady without a blink in the back and not in the front you may have poisture in the front bezels that needs to be sealed and dried when you change the bulbs, if that is the problem.
the blinker module is to the right of the steering column and the hazard module is to the left right next to the horn module. swith the hazard with the turn signal since they are both the same to identify the problem. HINT my blinker module was retained with a clip and somewhat hidden behind some metal.
