Default 240DL turn signal problem

Turn signals do not work but emergency flashers do. Does that mean it is a relay problem? If so, what is a relay, how much is it, where is it,what does it do and how hard is it to fix?I am a real car ignoramus (don't even change the oil myself) but willing to learn.
Thanks
John

check your fuse for the turn signals. Pretty sure the turn signals and hazards are on a different fuse.

Thank you for your help. You were right; it was indeed a fuse.... according to the manual the turn signals are on two fuses which I had not realized, so it was a very simple fix
Do you have any advice about a driver's side window that keeps coming off the bottom track? I have adjusted the bottom track but it does not seem to be horizontal, which seems to be the right position
Cheers!
John

Alot of times the Rubber seal that is supposed to hold the window goes bad.
Allowing the window to come out of the track/regulator.

Also check where the regulator slides there should be red washers sometimes they will fall apart making the regulator have more play.

Was able to fix the window; when I compared it to the passenger side I noticed that one part was bent, so I straighened it out and it worked, though it does also need the rubber seal that the glass sits in. Where to buy?

Haven't had to search the Aftermarket for one. Not sure if anyone sells them. Maybe the Dealer only.
