Turn signal failure

The bulbs all have to be good for the flasher to work. The flasher is under the dash, driver side. When you turn on a blinker, do you hear it clicking under the dash. If the turn light is on , on the dash , but not flashing, then a bulb is probably bad on that side. Leave the blinker on and walk around the vehicle to check the lights. Flip the blinker to the other side and walk around the vehicle again checking lights. If all the lights are lit, but not blinking, then the flasher is most likely bad.

My left front blinker flashes quickly. - The left

Check for power at the socket. If there is no power I would suspect the flasher relay wich supplies power to each bulb individually after it gets the right or left signal from the switch.

Clicking noise from the flasher relay when i use blinkers

That's normally a good sign.

I'd just check them out, switch on the 4 way flasher/emergency lights and walk round the car. If they're flashing on all 4 quarters. Its OK.

My blinkers and flashers all quit working at the same time. Indicator lights in the dash won't even light up. Do flashers and blinkers run off the same fuse?

The do not run off the same fuse but they do run off the same blinker. Try turning on the key, click the left/right (check both) turn signal and then operate the 4 ways on and off at the same time. Work the 4 way switch back and forth 10 to 25 times and see if you get any short winks or blinks from the system.
Turn signals are usually on their own fuse in the glove box and hazard are on with the brake fuse. If this does not work, I would look at the blinker. It is possibly bad. Check each pin of the blinker and see if there is power there when you turn on the 4 ways or turn signals. Replace Blinker. Make calls to parts stores and dealer for location of this blinker.

1990 Cadillac Fleetwood Left turning light or emergency lights go on but don't flash. The right turning light flashes well. If I turn the handle not all the way left and move it a bit the left light begins...

You most likely need a new blinker switch - the emergency flasher is also most likely bad - there is one flasher for turn signals - and one for the emergency lights --
Replacing a blinker switch is best left to the pros --
also - Take down the Vin # and call the local dealer - - ask about recalls and Service bulletins.
