A little electrical troubleshooting can narrow down the problem.

Sometimes, there's a problem with the ignition switch, where the turn signals stop working. That's even if the hazards work. They are on a different circuit. Ford had a recall out for the ignition switch internals breaking up, causing the problem. You should have nothing but the lowest climate control fan operation, if the ignition switch is bad (they share the same fuse in the fuse box).

If you know how to remove the switch from the steering column, without breaking it, you could check for continuity on the circuits for the turn signals. If there is not continuity, the switch is bad. It is known as a combination switch, as there are four different functions it performs (turn, pass, hi-beam, and intermittent wiper).

Hope that helps.

could be your turn signal cams. They're made of plastic and eventually wear done. it's located behind the steering whhel.

i have this same problem in my car, the lights light up, but dont flash when i push the lever all they way down.. i just go up and down on the blinker lever... like the flasher is working

[ghost97ta]

well i would do that but. the lights dont even light up .
i took binker assy off today and i dont have power to orange white
wire.so got to trace back it any one had this happen also all fuses
are good and flashers.

ok guys i found the problem . ok every one thinks the hazards
are on their own circuit but they share one common wire.
the orange white wire . it came out of the hazard lights
wire plug . so the blinkers get thier power from the power
side of the hazards .
thanks for every ones help.
