Brake Lights and Parking lights work on both left and right hand sides. Checked all bulbs. Fuses ok.

None of the RH REAR turn signal (lights) work. None of the rear (Hazzard) lights on right rear do not work. Wires seem OK, Light bulbs inspected and OK.

Left hand seems to be working fine........

Switch at steering wheel hosed ?

I'm having the same problem. Also looks like the problem in this thread:

Can anybody identify the part/module that needs to be replaced so I can go searching through the salvage yards? (trying to save as much money here as possible...)

thanks for any help!

Had to replace the rear light harness.

No modules were replaced.

No other issues have come to light.:iceslolan

Thanks Bill,

I've just solved my problem as well. Thought I'd post for anybody else who may run into similar.

First, I have a 96 Sebring Convertible JXi. Don't know if this is the same for others.

My car has an additional flasher module in the rear wiring harness in the trunk on the left handside behind the trim carpeting. In my case, this flasher module is either bad or the connection is just not good. By fiddling with the connector (pulling the module out, plugging back in) I am able to get everything working properly again. If the connection was just bad, I may be good to go now that I 've cleaned it and reseated it. If the problem comes back, their may be something bad inside the flasher itself requiring it to be replaced.

Flasher is Chrysler part# 04672296 and I was quoted $73.54 for the part from a local dealership. Have found the part on line for as low as $48 plus tax/shipping. Have NOT YET found any aftermarket replacement.

Still cheaper than the multifunction switch on the steering column and much easier to replace.
