Default Turn Signals

hey guys, ive had my car for about 6 years now. dont ask me why i havent already fixed this problem, but anyway, my turn signals havent worked since ive had the car. i have replaced all the bulbs, checked all the fuses, replaced the flasher, and have even switched out the turn signal handle assembly. still nothing works. the windsheild wipers work perfect, except for the windsheild cleaner. when you push the **** in nothing happens, but i have recently took all that out of the car. but my turn sugnals are bothering me, any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just replaced the turn signal lever on my daughters 91 GT...takes about 10 mins. to change & solved her problem!...they go by the years '87-89 & '89-93 (air bag) for those year Fox's...Everything now works!

The lever should cost around $150 to your door!

Where was the flasher you replaced located? Do your hazards work?

It sounds like the multifunction switch but you say replaced it. Can you hear the flasher? If so what does it sound like ? fast or slow? When you use the turn signal does the indicators in the dash work?

i had the exact same problem with mine, the brights work and so did the wipers but no turns signals. replaced bulbs, both flashers,(ones under the dash around the column on mine, and the others in the fuse panel). I check for power coming to the turnsignals and it was getting there just was coming out the other side when on.

So i broke down and bought one off ebay for like 125 or so and put it in and still nothing, similiar to you. What happen was someone hooked the powerwire coming into connector in the wrong little hole. i looked and the taps coming out of the turnswitch and stuck the wire in the connector to go on the correct tab, and now it works like new. i probly wasted a 120 bucks on a new switch but now i can read everything on it

Had the same issue awhile back, come to find out the plug that goes onto your ignition switch apparently must give power to your turn signals, cause mine quit working out of no were so i tore my steering column apart and start shaking wires, and i found that plug loose and they turn on....so check it out once...see what ya find.
