Blinker Issues - '03 Mustang

I'm trying to decide if I need a new flasher (unit that controls blinkers) or just a new bulb. My blinkers work about half the time. They will always flash on, but half the time they won't blink. I checked all the fuses and they are fine but I can't find the "flasher" unit that is in the Haynes manual (says it's be the fuse box).

I don't think I need a new bulb because the turn signal tuns on when I tell it to, but it just won't blink. Happens half the time on the right, half on the left.

Any ideas?

Flashers are pretty cheap, it might help to pick one up at an auto parts store to see what it looks like.

I don't even know why Mustangs come with rear blinkers, we all know nothing is slow enough to get BEHIND a mustang:goof

I know a couple guys that can help you with that experience, if you'd like.

Sounds like the flasher to me. Cheap and easy fix.

How about you? Lets see if you are a better or worse driver than the previous owner:thumbsup

Anyone know where the flasher is located on an 03 GT?

I finally found the lil' bastard, but can't pull it out (that's what he said)... I tried to look/feel for some tabs to push in as I pull but I got nothing...
