Its a bulb I had the same thing happen to me a week ago. Turn ur signals on get out the car and see which isn't flashing

i believe the four ways can flash even if the bulbs are burnt out. . . check out this thread:

if it is the flasher, however, it is located under the steering column, attached beside the radio. . .

the flash lights are different than the signals I believe, on my car they are (previous body)

Trust me its the bulb I had the same exact thing happen mine was the right front that was out. Put the blinker on the the side where it stays steady walk out the car and check both the front and the back

Mine was the flasher. It's behind the panel under the steering wheel. It was melted. When my bulb went out, nothing changed other than the bulb didn't work. I thought they were crazy telling me the flasher is bad when the flasher 4-way worked. I would go with the flasher. Good luck

Someone must have replaced your OEM T/signal flasher with a heavy duty flasher than because the OEM one is designed to stop flashing with a bulb out.
