Indicator lights problem !?!?!?!?

Hey guys .. just drove to a cousins place like 300 miles on christmas day. Suddenly had this weird issue that my indicators would blink just twice or once and then stop blinking.

Then sometimes they would just stop working and wouldnt work at all. Had a hard time while overtaking heavy traffic on the freeway and had to face a lot of angry highbeams from traffic behind me.

Its really annoying. They juts dont work at all .. or they would blink just one and a half time or twice and then shut off and sometimes wont even work at all.

What could be the problem and where ?

I have an 04 VP and I swapped on a EX cluster an year an a half ago and everything was perfect just till yesterday ! ... All the other stuff works perfect !!!

Do you mean turn signals ?? Have you tried the 4 way flashers ??

You could try a new flasher unit (plugs into under dash fuse box)

If the 4 ways work then the flasher unit is most likely o.k.

Are all of the turn signal bulbs flashing when using hazards (any burned out bulbs ?)

Is this something that happens every time you hit the multiway switch ( turn signal switch)?

start by checking fuse 5 and fuse 9 in under dash fuse box. if you still ahve your old cluster plug it in and see if anything changes. if it does then you kno the newer cluster is bad.
