Default blinker issue

Well, my blinkers have worked perfectly until today. When I have the blinkers on, whether its on the passenger setting or the driver side setting, it doesn't blink but just stays on... as if i just turned on another light on that side and nothing else haha. Any way to know exactly what is wrong with it or am I going to have to tear into my dash?

have you used the hazzard switch lately? It can collect dust and make it not have a connection and stick on. Try pushing the hazard switch in and out a bunch of times to clean it and see if it continues.

Yea the hazzard lights work. They both blink. How hard is it to replace my turn signal flashers? Would i need to replace that entire stick or is there just a fuze / wire that i can replace?

so does the light turn on? or just the arrow in your dash?
because when i turn on my right signal, the right arrow in the dash stays lit
i've been told i need to replace the bulb

Yea the light turns on in the dash and the actual light. But instead of it flashing, it just stays on... almost as if i turned on my headlights, but just the one blinker...
