I found the flasher under the driver side it work for the emergency lights. I cannot find the other flasher for the signal lights. Can someone tell me where to locate it? The problem is my signal lights do not work, no sound or no flashing lights inside or outside of the car.

The "flasher" unit on that car is a dual flasher,controls turns and hazards.Its also a Ford only item at around 80 bucks for it and it is located high up on the drivers side if firewall under dash to find it you almost need a map. Thats the normal problem child for your problem…..George

It could be a bad flasher or switch the flasher is different for the emergency flashers than the turn signals.

sounds like a bad flasher. You can try swapping the turn signal flasher with the emergency flasher to verify.

Replace the 4way flasher relay,you will have to check in the manual for the location,the flashers work independently of the signal flashers
