Default Turn Signal Malfunction

I've been having a problem with my turn signals the last few days that has been getting progressively worse. A few days ago, while I had my turn signal activated in a long turn lane, after about 10 or 11 clicks, the green arrow stopped flashing, but the lever was still active. It got worse, so that after a single flash, it would stop. Now it won't flash at all. The fuse is fine. Could this be another symptom of the instrument cluster failing?

Sounds like the switch inside the steering column has gone bad
It is something you can fix. There's some instructions in the Faq sticky. Save you a sh*t ton of money!!

Blinker systems are never fun to work on. So hopefully someone els can think of another thing it could be

look into a hazard relay switch too, heard this could be a culprit...

see if your 4 ways always work

I had something similar, it will get worse and more erratic too!.. mine turned out to be the hazard relay switch. The hazard button on the middle dash is actually the relay for the blinkers too, there is a write up on here somewhere, do a quick search and it will pop up. The part is about $65 from the dealer and takes 5 mins to change, you will need some radio pull out keys though, $5 from ebay or borrow them from your local Schucks....

Cool, thanks. I looked at the walk through, and it looks easy enough.
