Blinker Flasher?

Okay, I got my headlight problem worked out. But, the blinkers don't flash. I know there is a "Flasher" or whatever it's called, somewhere. I have a feeling it's burnt out, and thats why they don't flash, they just light up. Now, they're normally by the fuse box, but mine is not. I looked everywhere under the dash. I found the buzzer box (which I removed) and the headlight and running light pieces, but I can't find the one for the blinkers! Anyone know where it is?

the blinkers work off a circuit braker thats what that clicking is "open, close" or "click click" so look for the circuit braker and replace that

Yea, I know about the circuit breaker, know what it looks like too. In Kragen's they were called "Flashers". But, the thing I need help with is finding it. I search all around under the dash for about 20 minutes and I cannot find one for the life of me!

my flasher was just to the left of the steering colum , just mounted on a braket by itself. mine was a pain to pull out and in the prosses i sort of broke it but it started working again but in really random patterns, i thought it was hilarious so i left it in the truck blinking to its own beat.lol. do u touch the headlight bulbs with yer fingers b4 u put them in? if so then the grease from yer fingers burns them out.
