Turn signals help needed

just need some help....please,

I have a 2000 4x4 Ram 3500 dually TD, with trailer package. The turn signals flash once when I push the lever either way, then the lights are not blinking at all and are dark. I checked the hazzards and they work.

Is it the flasher Relay? or Is it the turn signal switch in the column?

If it is the Relay, is there only one?.....the Blue 6 Prong in the fuse box next to the driver door?

If it is the switch in the column, how much work is there to do to fix it?

Thanks for the help...

Swap the two flashers, by the door. One is 4-ways, other is signals. Get the heavy duty one when replacing.

Mine went out like that and was the blue flasher on the side ,just replace it it's an electronic type (no contacts) so will cost a little bit.

-High Quality Synthetic Blinker Fluid-
Are you blinkers sluggish? Do they make an annoying ticking noise? Do they not flash fast enough? Here's your solution. Little do people know, blinker fluid should be changed every 150,000 blinks! KaleCo high quality synthetic blinker fluid meets the highest D.O.T. standards! KaleCo blinker fluid provides you with thousands of hours of reliable blinking without the wear and tear on the flash-synchro's that the other blinker fluids cause! KaleCo blinker fluid will not lose its viscosity, even in the most extreme situations! Why buy that old dino-blinker fluid, when you can get our unique patented synthetic formula?

Seriously though......swap the relays, it sounds like your T/S relay is malfunctioning.

Thanks Shovelhead for the link to Kaleco's web site. One question though, will the O-pipe work with the wastegate valves on our turbos? I was also looking at getting the Exhaust filter since I am switching to the BHAF next weekend. What do you guys think? I did notice they did not have Kan-O-Compression, is that something they can order?

Serioulsy, replace the blue flasher.
