    Last friday my turn blinkers started to get slow, i didn't think much of it but now they all stopped working. When i push the lever up or down none of the turn signal bulbs blink in the front of back of the car? My first though is that its a blown fuse but every thing seems fine in the fuse box? Any thoughts?

    I was about to suggest a bad fuse. Have you checked for damaged wiring?

    Do you mean the whole arm that comes out and also controls the wipers? Did you fix this your self or have the dealer do it?

    I mean the flasher, itself. There is a small part that operates to turn your blinker lights on and off. It is an electrical part that physically causes the electric to toggle on and off to make the lights flash. Typically, it's in a fuse panel.

    Do your four way flashers work? (hazard lights)

    Yeah my 4 ways work just fine. I did check my fuses and the one for the turn signals is fine. Is there another one that it could be?

    Oh joy, sounds just like an old car of mine.... 4 ways would work, but the signals wouldn't turn on when I clicked the switch, I even replaced the unit and it wouldn't work.... (Know the unit was good).

    nofronts, sounds like you have an electrical problem. Now reason I say that is if all fuses check out, and you replace the switch unit, and they still won't work, then you might have to take it to the stealership, and have them check it out. I paid the stealership for 2 hours to track down my electrical problem in my old ride, and they told me they couldn't figure it out.... how nice...
