Sounds more like a short to me. Any chance you have the steering column bracket off? I believe that grounds dash.

Also, did you check the bulbs and sockets to make sure there not all cruded up?

I checked and changed the bulbs, they are OK, no I don't have the steering column out.
I'll have to get someone to help me check for a short.
Thanks for replying.

My car did the exact same thing when I bought it. I don't remember exactly what the fix was, but I know that between changing the flasher, replacing one bad turn signal socket and cleaning all of the electrical connections my lights work perfectly now. By process of elimination, you'll eventually find the cause.

found it, it was the connector at the wire harness end of the signal light socket, it wasn't fully pushed on to the other connector.
thanks for the assistance.
