Thank you for all the help I received from this list, the consensus was
right, the problem was in the Hazard switch, which I would have never guess
had it not been for the great help of this list.
This morning I took the Hazard switch out and cleaned the contacts and the
blinkers stared working again, I think I may look around for a new hazard
switch.
Thank you again to all for your invaluable advise, looks like now that I'm
retired I'm finally trying to learn about my MG's.
