Default Turn Signal - 'left only' not working

I have a 2000 Grand Caravan SE, and the turn signal (left only) is not working. I went to the local pull a part and got a new (used) turn signal assembly from the same make model caravan, and the same thing happens.

The emergency flashers work fine. Most often if I turn on the emergency flasher, and turn it off with the left turn signal on, it works.

Any ideas on how I can fix it?

Remove the combination flasher module. Remove the cover. Re-flow the solder joints securing the external contacts to the internal circuit board. Common fault.

Thanks, I meant to update this, I did find that module, and did that! Works great now!

Great news. I found that little gem on another forum some years ago. About a year ago I had to do it. Can't imagine how many have wasted $50 or more on a new module.
