Electrical problem
1998 Buick Century 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

right turn signal does not work, it's not the bulb, when I put a meter to it the voltage change seems small when I set blinker on, as compared to the left one when I put a meter to it there is a large voltage change.
Is there a part under the dash called a flasher that could be the problem??? Mitch

Sounds more like a loose or broken connection or wire to the one side. A flasher or relay would affect both, i think. Retrace as much of the wiring from the bulb socket as you can and look for any damage.
