    come on though, I could't resist. Check the connections in the blinker arm they can wear down after so much use and not make an electrical connection after awhile. The same thing happens on your ac fan dial. The metal tab connections just wear through and dont work after a while.

    My husband said the same thing as chompi.Check the wiring, he said the wires get corosion(sp) on them, and the same thing happened with a head light. Hope that helps.

    You need to get busy with your meter....trace from your turn signal switch back. More that likely you have a broken wire (the wire might look fine, insulation intact however the wire inside may be broken)...good luck

    You do realize the last post before yours was almost 2 years ago? Not a big deal but I'm sure any issue has been fixed by now.:biggrin_25525:
