Turn signals not blinking? Any ideas?

I actually just got the car back from the body shop, so i'm thinking they might be the culprit. When i use the turn signals, the arrow lights up, but they dont' blink. I went around the car and the bulbs light up and just stay lit. Any ideas? I looked at the fuse panel and the relay and fuse panel under the hood and didn't find a fuse for the blinker.......

YEA, I'm having the same problem. Check to make sure all of the light bulbs are good. If one is out then the hole thing gets messed up. After that I'm lost. All my bulbs are workin OK.I'm curious to see what the problem is so I can fix mine. Good Luck

change out your turn signal flasher. My turn signals used to stay on constantly instead of blinking and this fixed my problem. The picture below is from Shoebox's website. You have to take the driver's side bottom dash panel off to get to the flasher. The thing on the top of the pic is the steering wheel, just so you know the orientation of the pic. Flasher should run you less than $5 at any Napa, Checkers, Autozone, etc.

You probably got the high performance flasher.
