'98 Honda Prelude. Turn signals won't flash when using the column switch. Hazard switch works all lights normally. Checked ALL fuses. Replaced 6 prong flasher relay in driver's footwell (Part #FR-3501). Replaced column switch. No alteration of car's wiring for several years. No accidents or body work done. Turn signals just quit working all of a sudden. I'm stumped. Any help would be appreciated.

Put key in run-At the turn signal switch look for power at the red wire-nothing there check below

Check fuse no.13 15amp and the turn signal light diode-see below

Extreme thanks for your diagnosis. Wire to the diode was broken! Now I can feel safe changing lanes again. Have a great day. I sure will!
