Default flashers...help!

Ok, first ignore the typos cuz I'm writing on my phone and it has a mind of its own. I'm heading out in. a couple of weeks for the queens southern meet in georgia and my bike is having some flasher issues that I need to fix before I go or I'm in trouble. My turn signals work but my flashers don't. i should have checked the manual buy haven't had the time...does my bike have fuses? Any ideas what would make flashers not work but signals and brake lights do? Shes an 07 deluxe.

I guess you're talking about the 'four way flashers'. They come on by pressing both turn signal buttons at the same time and go off the same way. If that's all that is not working, why worry about it. I never use mine anyway. If your turn signals are not flashing that's another issue for sure.
ps: This is an edit. I feel like we're talking about two different issues here. If your turn signal is coming on and not 'flashing' then make sure you have all good bulbs. This usually causes a problem. If you have a load equalizer installed for rear turn/brake lights that could be it too.

Guess I didnt make myself post very clear. My 4ways are what is not working. No, it's not a big deal but I like to make sure everyhing works the way it is supposed to before riding 1100 mls one way. Who knows, it could be a fuse or something and cause me to lose turn signls too. That I would no e comfortable with.
