Welcome to 2CarPros.

Did you notice if both front and rear lights are flashing? As far as the directional flasher, both the hazard and turn signal flashers have been integrated with the hazard switch. So the switch will need replaced.

Here are the directions for switch replacement. The attached pictures correlate with the directions.
