Possible you have a bad relay - even though it is a new one. Also - is it a 3 piun or a 4 pin relay? If it is a 3 pin, try a 4, if it is a 4, try a 3 pin.
Another possibility is you ahve a faulty turn signal switch. AFJuvat

Look for incorrect (single filament bulb in a two filament socket- two filament socket has two contacts in the bottom) or improperly installed bulbs in the turn signal housings. Jim

I just replaced my turn signal flasher w/ a new one and it acted exactly like yours is. When I returned this I noted to the parts guy that my old
flasher was a Hella and that when opening it up it had a visible set of points in it, while the new unit was smaller and it appeared to not have a mechanical set of points in it. The new flasher was the right part number and it had the same markings on the 4 terminal spade connectors. Well he exchanged the unit for a Hella brand unit that he had on the shelf and bingo my signals and hazards work properly now! I did not take the new Hella apart to see if it looked different. Don't know if first new unit was bad, but it was obviously different inside. My car is a 79 SC
