All my signals work except for the left front turn signal. The indicator also does not work on left turns. I've replaced the front signal bulbs and the indicator bulb, but still the same thing. I've replaced the relays also. When I replaced the indicator bulb it worked fine for about 5 minutes and then it when back to the way it was. I need help...please, Andy

I appreciate the response. Where can I find the ground circuit and combination switch. Could it be the flasher unit if the indicator still clicks, i'm not sure.

And no it does not work on the 4 way flasher.

Thank you, Andy
