it happen for both side. sometime it works and sometime it doesn't. Do you think is something to do with the fuses? because it blink and stop. sometime it blink for few times then stop.

That happend to me once. My bulb was put it backwards. I didn't even know there was a wrong way to put them in... but since there are two little bumps, there's one way that is a lot easier than the other.

Not sure if that's your problem, but it might be.

yea if you knew how a flasher works, its very possible for it to mess up and blink erratically.

its either the flasher or a burnt out bulb. check the bulb first.

If i was workin the parts counter and someone came in and told me they needed the flasher, or a flasher, i'd look at them like they were nuts too.
