The left front turn signal stopped working. The rear left signal works, all lights flash when emerg. Hazard lights are on. Checked bulb its ok. Checked fuses all are ok. The inside indicator on the dash makes the flasher sound but no indicator light shows for the left turn indicator.

Although the flasher is making a noise, it doesn't mean the flasher is good. I would try swapping the flashers for the ts and the 4ways and see if it then works.

Or for the couple bucks, buy one and install it.

Hi, thanx for the reply, I got duped into replacing the "flasher unit" about 8 ms ago. Is their 4 seperate units for all four signals? Why would it flash when hazards are on? Anyway, I was fussing with the indicator stick on the column and the front left started flashing now cant get it to do it again. Could a wire be lose somewhere in the stick on the column?

Duped? No just two.

Regardless, the reaction you had while you were playing with the stalk, leads to a bad switch everytime I can think of.
