My turn signals sometimes don't come on when I move the lever! I changed the fuses and still have the same erratic on/off situation. The flashing signal on the dash board showing which direction I'm turning won't illuminate! When I got home and restarted the car, they were working! Do I have a loose connection somewhere that I need to know about?

More than likely this is a turn signal switch issue. So, here is a video on a similar vehicle that will help with this:

I am attaching some additional information about this switch below which will help with this.

However, the way to confirm this is to access the switch and check the voltage coming from the switch

Please find the wiring diagram attached as well so let's start with this info and we can go from there.

Thanks
