Hi Susan.

When the turn signals are turned on, does anything happen? For example, do they turn on and not flash or does nothing happen at all?

Also, check to see if the back up lights are working. If they aren't, check the signal/back up light fuse in the fuse box. See pic 1.

Here are a few links you may find helpful:
