[QUOTE=1990fox5.0;5827725]when i turn the turn signal lever to the left it works fine and flashes but when i push it to the right it doesnt flash it just stays soild, i thought it was a fuse so i replaced the circle fuse under the
driverside dash but did help does any one have a idea thaxz.[/QU


Check your bulbs too see if they all flash on the right side. Normally if the dash light doesnt flash thats how the car tells you a bulb is blown.Hope this helped,if not and you already knew this,then just call me an idiot.

There is too much bulb speculation in this thread. The easiest way to check, hit the hazzards and see if all the bulbs work. If they do, it's not a bulb problem. I'll stick w/ my flasher suggestion until he tries one and proves otherwise.

for the 89 there are two flashers. One for hazards and one for blinkers. As for the one that doesnt stay in,it goes on the opposite side of the fuse panel.Under the dash.The other one is tricky to find. on some early model Fox's they are also under the dash on the driver side somewhere,but on later model Fox's they are around the glove box.

the one behind the fuse box is there but the one missing is the one on the front. im assuming thats the tricky one. do you guys have a number i could look for? i pulled the one behind the box and it says 552. i got a 552 and tried to put it in but no luck. i also saw a green one behind the fuse pannel as well. it was attached to some wires.

theres not one that goes on the front. try digging around under the dash for a plug. The plug should have two purple wires with orange stripes and one blue one running to it. that is the plug for your blinker flasher.
