It just stopped working.
When I switch it left or right,no light comes on.
Like no electricty is going through any more.
Please help with any knowledge of this issue.
Thanks.

The turn signal switch goes through the 4 way flasher switch.
Turn on/off the 4 way flashers some and see if the turn signals
start to work after this.The 4 way flasher switch could have failed.
Check the fuse also.

Well, I just tried the hazards tonight, and they don't work.
I put a new 8amp fuse in , still not working.
What should I try next?

The flasher, it's located behind the center console on the left side, near
the driver's right knee in the US.
