turn signal problems

not sure y my turn signals stoped working. heres the scoop. the 4-ways work still but do not register on the speedo. when i turn my lights on the 4 ways turn on and stay on do not blink. the turn signals do nothing with the lights on or off. all the fuses are good. what should i check?

Check the grounds (brown wire). There may be corrosion. I had the same problem.

Check the fuses and the turn signal and rear light assemblies. Be sure the wires all have good, clean connections and check the integrity of the bulb assembly.

The rear tail light grounds are behind the lens assembly and attached to the body.

The front signal lights are attached to the brown wire that hooks up to the body by the fuse panel ( in my cars case).

The grounds on my car were corroded on the front signal lights. If you disassemble the lens while in the car you can acess the ground connection.

If I unhooked the front signals the rears worked propoerly with lights on or off.
