My turning signal bulbs are lit, but they stopped blinking in the dash display and outside the car in both directions.
I checked the fuse, in the main fuse box by the drivers side door, and it looked ok to me. What else could the problem be? Is there a relay or something that could have failed?

Check and test the turn signal flasher and the turn and hazard switch

Ok, so the Hazard lights still work, I switched the fuse from the Hazard spot to the Turning signal spot and still nothing. Any ideas?

You mean the actual turn lever attached to the steering column, I'm assuming. What is the best way to test it? Do I need to take the wheel off to do this?

Did you check the turn signal flasher? If okay you need to remove the s/wheel and trace the wires the turn signal wires Left sig is the light blue wire, Right sig is the dark blue wire-
