    My turn signals randomly stopped working the other day. I checked and replaced all the fuses to no avail. Any idea what this could be?

    Insert tab A into slot B and........pound it with a hammer!

    The stick itself? I had a problem with my wipers and it was that. I'd have to look at an etm but it's a possibility

    If it isn't this flasher (the silver canister thingy)
    yours may be yellow,
    then some thing has happened
    inside the steering column on the turn signal
    cams requiring disasembly to repair.

    Am I thinking to far back?
    Or does the all in wonder stick have turn
    signal cams built into the bottom of the
    stick?

    Had to fix the signal cams on my 1974 column.

    Let's hope it is just the flasher.

    Yeah I have the silver thingy. I'll try replacing that first and see what happens. I haven't gotten pulled over for not signaling yet so

    Insert tab A into slot B and........pound it with a hammer!

    Does your hazard lights work, the 4 way flashers?
    If not sure sign it is the flasher gone bad.

    Turns out it was the silver thing. Walked up to i-dont-know zone and got me a heavy duty one for $7. Thanks for the help
