Dear All,
Took my car out for drive post clutch replacement (due to seized throwout bearing) and car shifted great (thanks again John!). But during short drive noted that turn signals don't "blink" - they illuminate and the indicators light up on the speedometer - but not clicking sound and not blinking? Would this be a relay issue? Or a ground issue? Checked on fuses and they looked good, loosened them and repositioned in case I had some resistance from corrosion, no changed. Any advice appreciated. Best, Reg |

When my blinkers were acting up it was two issues. First there was a bit of corrosion on one lamp, easy fix. Then I also had to change the relay. Found the relay by turning on the emergency flashers and listening for the clicking sound. The relay was tucked up under the steering column. It looked brand new. Changed it out with a different brand and all is working okay now.
