Turn signal issues

My right side turn signal has stopped working. Both bulbs have been replaced (no change), and when I click the signal on there is no normal sound that goes with the blinker. I've checked the fuses and followed the wire all the way back to the CPU and showed voltage. I checked what I believe to be the correct wire coming out of the CPU and still had voltage, and followed it under the dashboard until it intertwined with all the rest of the wires and went through the firewall. At that point I tried to work backwards from the front right socket back. I did not get any voltage at the socket and tried to begin working back, but once again the wire became quickly tangled with many more and could not follow it far.

Any suggestions??

So, in a nutshell the symptoms are:
-Front and rear right turn signal don't work.
-No cooresponding sounds with signal.
-Emergency flashers do not work on right side of car.
-New bulbs
-Left side works fine.

The relay switch probably burned out. It's pretty common.

Yeah, I did all that... contacts are clean and I already looked for loose wires, etc. Your first suggestion might be it... are there more then one relay switches (one for left turn signal and one for right)? Also, is the relay switch(s) under the hood?

Either the switch contacts in the hazard flasher unit (CPU) are bad, or your turn switch contacts are bad (cluster switch), or your turn cancel sensor is stuck on for the right side...If both front & back are inop, grounds should be good (unless you have two bad grounds at once- not likely, but ya never know with these cars )

Probably a bad flasher board in the bottom of the CPU.
