Think my flashers stopped working on day 1--same day they installed the signal light conversion box for the toad [fuse]. There is a specific fuse for the flashers under the dash --its inside one of two fuse boxes on the fire wall behind the plastic wall cover directly in front of the passenger seat.

I have never had to replace any fuses for the flashers but there should be a flasher itself which very well may have gone bad. I do not know it's location but I would assume it is up under the dash and if it is like a typical flasher it should look like a silver round can app. an 1-1/2" long and about the same in dia. Possible someone else could be a little more specific.

I had the flaser unit that operates the turn signals go bad. Under the dash, on the passenger side, is where the flasher units are. There are two of them, one for the flasher, one for the turn signals. Access is by removing the panel in front of the passenger seat.

Thanks for the input, I will take a look at the fuses and flashers the next time I am at the coach.

The heavy-duty flashers are about the size of an old film canister. Napa usually has them.
