NJ Relay Box??

ok guys I'm having yet another issue. My passenger side turn signal was acting up and started working when it wanted to. Now it just does't work. the bulbs are good but when I flip the turn signal switch up it just makes that fast clicking sound as if a bulb was out. I checked the fuse but then i thought it would't make sense cause the left one works fine. sure enough the fuse was good then i went and noticed that when I tapped what I'm assuming to be the relay box for the flasher
(its right next to the fuse box to the left) that it would work and then stop.

Is this a common problem?? If so can i open up the box and change the relay or do i just have to change the whole box itself?

i added a picture so you can see the box I'm talking about

Very common problem. Resolder all the major solder joins in the CPU (the "relay box").

Cool so I just unscrew and open the box and then resolder it.. thanks for the help. one more question. Would this also cause my reverse lights to go out? Cause they also went out when this problem happened. And both bulbs are also good
