Sometimes the right turn signal works and sometimes it does not. Replace the turn signal switch and all bulbs on right side. Put on computer to check lighting control module, still no luck fixing this problem. Please can you help me?

Hello,

It sounds like you have a flasher module that is going out but to be sure here is a guide and the wiring diagrams for the blinkers and the blinker module location under the dash test to confirm where you are losing power.

Check out the diagrams (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.

Ken, thanks so much for your advice on this turn signal issue. I am old school mechanic and did not even know of a turn signal module. My day's of a turn signal was a flasher.
