Default 96 accord turn signals not working?

I accidentally posted in the other section when I wanted to post here.

Both my turn signals just suddenly stopped working. They do not show up on the outside of the car, or blink on the inside of the car. But i DO hear the clicking when i engage the turn signal and turn the wheel a bit.

I checked the 7.5a fuses underneath the dash, those are fine. I replaced my whole turn signal assembly last year, so i suspect that It cant be that...

My hazards work fine though...


Would love some help!

Dustin

I was told that it is most likely the turn signal flasher that has gone bad... But I have also read that the hazard and the turn signal share the same flasher... so that cant be the problem since my hazards work just fine... am i wrong?

That is correct, the relay is working if the hazards work.

There are some electrical tests you can try. You can pry out the hazard switch and test the electrical connector. The yellow wire has 12V to ground (any bare metal bolt should work for a ground) with the key in the II position.
