What are your symptoms? If the flasher is flashing rapidly, it is probably not broken and the bulb is jsut loose in the socket. Search Google groups archives for this newsgroup to find the exact "tricks" to making sure your bulb fits tight in the socket and makes secure contact with the electrical spring contacts.
Good suggestion. The flasher unit hardly fails but the bulb sockets are real problems.

The main problem that i'm running in to is that the left flasher will not turn off. Both turn sygnals work just fine on their own but when I turn on the left turn signal and turn it off the turn signal keeps flashing at half power. I have tried changing the flasher unit but that did nothing, the problem is still there.
Since the loose spring contacts in the flasher bulb sockets are a known problem, and easy to fix, I would start there before trying anything else.
