Did you check / replace your flasher?

Go to the exploded view section and look up your year Bump and you'll see the Flasher near the instrument cluster.

They're usual Silver in color and barrel shaped.

Usually I just replace them... they're not pricey. While you're at it, if plan on towing a trailer, get the Heavy Duty flasher, it'll handle the load of your Bump and trailer current without blinking rapidly.

67's before serial number A52000. uses a single flashers. and it is a loud flasher. and other later 67 flashers are also a singl eflasher i think. the difference is the prongs that hook up the flasher. early 67 had one male and on female flasher. later square boxes would have two male spade like a regular flasher. if you have the early one you could get the correct loud flasher or rig up the wiring to fit a regular dual male spade connector to use the regular heavy duty round flasher. if you have a two male flasher a heavy duty round flasher will probably work. you could bench test it by hooking it up outside the truck. with power a switch and a light. it isnt that hard to do. i did it. here is a video i did using a heavy duty flasher. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w813jCXI ... re=related

Have you checked your blinker fluid? You may be out.
