My 2001 Ford Escape v6 3.0L (not Ford Tribute as listed above) only indicates on the right side. When the hazard is switched on again only the right side indicates. I suspect it is a faulty turn signal flasher unit but i can find the exact one on the eBay and AutoZone. What other sites can i check?

Hi,

I have the OEM part number. It is YL8Z13350BA. I tried finding one and several Ford dealers show it, but they indicate it is no longer available.

Take that number with you to the parts store and see if they can cross reference, it to an after-market manufacturer's part number that will do the job.

Let me know if this helps.

Take care,

Joe
