Have 97Ram1500, 5.9, auto, 2wd. This afternoon I lost all turnsignals,
including dash indicators. Went from everything working to nothing
working. All other electric fubctions ok. Fuse? Relay?

It sounds like the flasher unit failed.

Suddenly, without warning, Mr,Lou exclaimed (28-Dec-06 2:44 PM):

How about the radio? When this happened to my truck, intermittently,
the radio went out with the turn signals... turned out to be the
ignition switch (diagnosed by someone here). Try wiggling it and see if
the signals come back...

The radio works fine. That's what so strange, all electrics other than
turn signals are fine. Allother dashlights, interior lights, radio etc.
ok.

Why is that strange? If the flasher unit fails, the only thing that will
not work are the flashers. Replace the flasher. You will find it next to
the fuse box behind the kick panel.
