Signal Indicator Problem

Signal Indicator Problem
Org, I think I have a rare problem here with my indicator system. When I signal to turn, it works normal and at random, it turns off and stops working. This occurs when I signal left, right, or turn on the hazard switch. I would hit the dash or the steering column and it would start back working briefly and then go back out. Is this a tired relay that needs replacing? If so, where is it located or someone guide me in the right direction.

Mine did this for the first time last night. I turned my turn signal on and it didn't even blink. It just turned the dashboard arrow light on and never worked. I didnt know what I did to make it work again, but I was so confused. I'm not an electrical guy, so anyone else with input would be so helpful.

Maybe swap out the flasher under the dash..?

Is there a diagram of the circuit in the FSM? Rather narrow it down to the exact problem instead of changing random parts. I can try the hazard switch though since I already have a spare one.

^^Jesus.....I think I am going to start with the hazard switch. I would have never imagined the circuit for that was so complex. Also M34 (Combination Flasher Unit) may be a point of interest. Where is that located?

Update
Just to update the thread, I ordered the part from dealer which was service filed with a redesigned part and the bracket had to be swapped. Here is the photo of parts ordered.
The new unit is smaller then original and after installing, it is a little quieter when signaling. So far, it is working but will not know for sure until I do a highway trip. Will keep you guys posted.
