Check that the fuse for directionals is not blown. If direction arrows and exterior lights illuminate but don't flash usually means that a front or rear bulb is out and needs replacement. You may have a bad ground at lamp sockets. The plug connection itself needs to be reseated at bottom of steering column. The turn signal flasher itself needs to be replaced. Try these tasks. Good luck!
If the turn signals and emergency signals don't workout sounds like an electrical problem's would suggest that you take it into the closest shop to get the problem diagnosed properly.
its either the flasher or the turn signal switch
Check fuse Check bulbs--they are double filamented with the smaller for turn signals Replace turn signal flasher--Most common problem
If the 4 Ways/Hazards are disconnected then neither will work the park lights nor the turn signals.
It could be the turn signal bulbs, some vehicles use separate bulbs for the hazard and turn signals. It could also be a bad switch or wires for the turn signals.
The 1990 VW Jetta turn signals will not work when the ground wire is broken or corroded. The turn signals may need the lightbulb's replaced.
Either check the fuses or change the bulb.
In pa you dont need turn signals
Well if your turn signals still work its not a short. I just fixed a pinched wire on my 96 and now my turn signals dont work. But according to a buddy of mine on Clubintegra.com there is a chance the fuse for the hazards is blown.
if the headlights work it is bad wiring if they dont its a fuse
have you tried replacing the flasher u need to replace the flasher can for the turn signals there are 2 one for hazards and one for turn signals usually found in the fuse box, and cost about 3 bucks
because there are two diffrent flashers 1 for the flashers and 1 for turn
