Default quick question

I got a 1999 dakota 5.2L and i'm trying to figure out where the flasher relay goes in. In the fuse panel by the drivers side there looks like a relay in there, would this be it or should i look somewhere else.
thanks.

its on the drivers side of the dash. pull the lil pannel off and its in there. there is a diagram on the back of the pannel to tell you where it is.

all your relays are under the hood just behind the battary pull the lid off and look for the flasher relay but remember lookin at the panel to find them its like lookin inmirror so they are backwards all your fuses for cig lighter and stuff like that are on the drivers side when you open the door by the dash but i would suggest checkin your fuses first the relays are a pain in the rear!

ok here it is

the relays are under the hood, just behind the battery

the fuses are in the dash panel when you open the door you can see the fuse box

and the flasher switch is in the column(duh) im not 100% sure what you are trying to change, but the first two have labels on the covers for the relays it is mirrord and for the fuses its on there just turn it until it matches up hope i helped

You could check under the dash around where the OBD port is. im asuming your flashers arent working? try your 4 ways, if you hear them click then look for where the clicking is, the relay is whats causing the clicking. alot of times the directional relay is by the 4 way relay.
