Default blinker stopped blinking

a few days ago my blinker just decided to go out. my flashers still work though so i though that was funny. my question is how do i fix this? my fuse is fine, and my emergency flashers still work so im guessing its my flasher 232... any help would be appreciated. btw... are the emergency and directional flashers together on the same flasher? thanks!

Under the dash (below the steering wheel) there's two. The one on the left is for your blinkers - right is for your flashers. Their kinda hidden behind the metal pieces on the sides (there's a gap above em, you should see a clip on top, that's what's holding them up). You'll see once you drop the plastic piece.
