Turn signal lights erratic both sides. Sometimes works, then not, during the same trip 850 1995

My turn signals have a ghost. I will check the bulbs but it seems that both sides are acting up and sometimes while sitting in one place. Is this a relay issue?

To check the relay, push the triangle in the dash board when the signals are acting up. The relay is part of the emergency flasher.

Most definitely the relay. Where exactly is that relay? There is a grouping up under the dash and another under the hood with the fuses? My diagram from the manual does not show the signal relay in either grouping. What is the relay called? Thanks in advance. jg

The relay and the emergency flasher are one in the same. You must replace the flasher in order to replace the relay. It just pops out of the dash.
