So before the problem happen, i would use the indicators like normal until recently i would hear click and nothing would work. I would then play around with my harzard button until i saw the lights flash then i would indicate like normal. Now the indicators don't work at all. However, when i lock my car the hazards flash and when i unlock my car it flashes again. Hope this makes sense.

Good morning,

This sounds like the turn signal flasher is not functioning correctly.

Turn signal/hazard flasher relay is located on relay box behind left-hand side of instrument panel, next to steering column.

They do not show a picture of the flasher but say it is at the back of the fuse, relay box at the lower left at the kick panel.
