Holiday Greetings to All

I checked the Bentley, and it seems (I must admit I'm sometimes  mystified by complex wiring diagrams) the emergency flasher relay is the one that operates the turn signals also.  But although my emergency flashers work, my turn signals don't.  There is a ghostly green glow out of the indicator's LED which gets brighter as the lever is moved, but no flashing action nor a light lit at the proper location. Before I pull things apart, will someone assure me that the emergency flasher is the only "flasher" relay in the system, and it's proper replacement will cure my ailing turn signals.  I'm hoping I don't have to remove the lever mechanism from the steering column.  The relay above the fuse block would be much easier.  Any hints on why one works and the other doesn't would help cure my curiosity also.
