So you're saying that your turn signals don't flash on the instrument cluster? Do they flash outside of the car?

Yea that's what I was going to suggest, its possible it could be the bulbs. I mean the chances of both going out is pretty rare, but might be worth a try first before you start tearing into everything else.

Chase the voltage back from the bulb to the flasher relay. get yourself a voltage tester.

That's my suggestion. we can't chase your wires. You need to actually test on your own
