Mercedes Benz repair: Signal light flasher 1977 W107 450 SLC, mercedes benz 450slc, signal relay

Question
1977 450 SLC (Gray Market).  Where is flasher located?  I have searched under driver's side dash and cannot locate it.

Answer
Answer:
Your car should be basically the same as a
107.044 117.985 V8 450SL CIS fuel inj. years 1976-1980.

Hazards and turn signals share the same flasher.
Do your hazards works?
If not, then this relay is unlikely to be the issue.

The flasher is part of the hazard switch.
You need to remove the ashtray, the mount for the ashtray, take out the two screws that hold the wood console in place, the shift boot (rubber around gear selector).
Carefully lift the front of the wood, roughly one half inch, then slide the wood section back and it should be off.
On the bottom of the hazard switch is the flasher.

You may be able to fix this by cleaning the corroded contacts inside, 50/50 risk that it repairs or breaks.
