it could possibly be the turn switch or lever as stated above pretty simple fix, just pull of plastic covers around the steering wheel and its right there, while your in there you could test it, turn left check with a test light does it light up the test light? turn right same proceedure? if no replace switch.

I think I would replace the flasher first. It's easier and cheaper and that's generally the problem.
