Default Turn signals won't work!!!

My turn signals just decided to stop working. Can anyone that has had this issue have a place to start looking? Yes I have checked all the bulbs first. Could the blinker module cause this?

Year/Model is a good place to start here. For now check fuses.

You report: 96 fxdwg with no light mods, no flashers, No hazards.
I will guess that the front yellow running lights are OFF when the ignition is on.
Because the front turn signals are suppose to be running lights ON when the ignition is on.

Please recheck all your fuses.
Many times folks tell me a fuse is OK but it was blown.
Remove and check with strong flashlight or continuity tester.
Anybody been playing with the bars or under tank or set?

Been under tank and seat both to replace bad speedo, but I didn't see any fuses. Is there a fuse block I don't know about? My manual is MIA, so I have another one on the way. Haven't needed it in awhile.

My front turn signals have never worked as running lights now that I have thought about it.
