may be under the gauges/behind the headlight. Should be two of them.

There are 2 flashers. One for the directionals and one for the 4-ways. They are mounted under the dash in the upper right hand corner under the tach. The wires are quite short and they are mounted in a spring clip like a circuit breaker.

Reach up under the right front corner of the cowl and the directional flasher is generally the one most inboard. Flip on your 4-ways and you'll be able to feel which one it isn't.
