Check that all the indicator bulbs are working, the flasher will only work if it has the correct load, 2x21+5W

Swap left and right wires - so the wrong lights flash - does the indicator light follow that swap - or stay the same?

Wire a test lamp to P on your flasher unit and see if that flashes both sides. If it does then the indicator stalk is not earthing the telltale lamp in the up position......maybe............Oh, and welcome.
