Right Turn Blinker on Dash Stopped Working

[szyzygy]

I noticed I was driving around a bit today with my right turn signal on after switching lanes, and it didn't self shut-off. That's not like me. Then I noticed it was because the flashing light wasn't there to remind me.

The exterior turn signals all work, and the left blinker on the dash works.

Hazards all work, too, but they don't cause the dash blinkers to flash. Seems like most other cars I've owned, the hazards affect the interior flashers as well.

So what do you guys think is the issue? Bulb? Loose wire? There wouldn't be a separate relay for each blinker light, would there?

TIA

Pull the gauge and check the bulb, swap to check it is not the socket or wiring. Probably jusy the bulb. don't sweat it.

Dosconnect the battery when you do, just incase the hot lead hit the chassis. Also best to pull the clock then speedo, reach in behind it and push the Tach out.

Tack is the tough one, need to remove steering wheel and clam shell.

Thanks guys. I'll check the bulb. if theres one thing I'm good at, it's removing the wheel!
Wish I knew the bulb was bad earlier yesterday....just ordered a bunch of stuff from our sponsor.

I've pulled the speedo, reached in and got the bulb in question out....lot easier.

did you check your blinker fluid? sorry couldn't help it

I pulled out the tach to the right and reach in around the back of the speedo. I felt a hole where the plastic cap should rest. Closer inspection revealed that the plastic housing & bulb had simply fallen out behind. I put the key in the ignition, and used my turn signal. There is was, flashing away. I plugged it back in and back to normal.

Thanks everyone. Glad I didn't even have to take the wheel off using the ole' tach trick!
