There should be two flasher relays.The one for the turn signals probably is bad.The easiest way to find it would be to turn on the hazards and listen to where the clicking is coming from.Track that down and the other flasher is usually next to it or within a few inches of it. As long as the hazard flasher is working you can remove that one and put it in the turn signal one just to verify that is the issue.If that corrects the issue you will need to purchase a flasher relay.

If all lights work than suspect a bad turn signal flasher.owners manual may give you the location
but if not, check in the fuse box or under dash driver side.

good luck

SOURCE: 1993 buick lesabre, the blinkers

The unit for the emergency and the flasher is usually the same unit as your possible problem is in the selector switch of the flasher/blinker which is the multiple point cluster switch.
It will be good to start the test using a multimeter to trace the voltage to the switch, if absent check the fuse market in the fuse box.
Since the emergency is working the unit seems working fine and hence your cluster switch must be double checked because the trigger positive to the unit from the switch is absent.
Cross and test with +12 volt to confirm.

Blinkers wont work.all my lights turn on flashers work just no turn signals only front side markers what can it be?

This vehicle should have 2 flasher relays one that operates the emergency flashers and one operating the turn signals.Easiest way to locate these would be to turn the emergency flashers on and listen to where the clicking is coming from usually the flasher are pretty close to each other.Once you find the flasher unit you can swap the flasher unit that is working with the one that is not and if the turn signals work after that you will need to purchase another flasher relay.

Turn Signal Fuse or switch replacement? '93 buick lesabre?

Yes all the wiring needs to be complete. Then all the bulbs must be inserted into sockets. left side marker right side front turn back turn reverse lights brake light everything. Then make sure they all work. The problem could even be a bulb thats on the fritz ready to blow but still on and dim little light. if that's all fine then it's probably your flasher. There are 2 flashers one for turn and one for hazards but I think they are the same but still separate. located under dash on either side of the steering wheel. The flasher closest to the door is up in there pretty far it's size is about like a 2 liter cap and it's silver. good luck

My signal lights on my 1989 buick lesabre has

It's the same bulbs I believe, so look for the flasher module, the most likely suspect. It should be a round metal or plastic can, pretty accessible under the driver's side dash.

They use a different flasher module for the emergency lights because it's turning on and off more bulbs.

My flashers do not work and/or light-up

The flasher is in with you fuses under your dash. Turn on the blinker and follow the sound. If it wakes any sound you will be able to find it easy, if not I think it is toward the bottom, in the middle of the fuse panel.

The blinkers quit working

Do u mean the hazard flashers work, but not the turn signals? If so, check the turn signal flasher, it should be replaced. If I didn't understand your question, let me know.

Signal light problem

If the signal lights don't work on either side, front and back, check the flasher, usually located on the fuse block. If this isn't it, let me know, we can continue from that point.
