I have a problem with my signals. They work when the harzard light switch is on but won't work when I use the column signal switch. The indicator light on the dash stays on with ut blinking. I have check the stat on the passenger side of the car and it has voltage going to it. Is there something I am missing?

I have the same problem intermittently on the driver side. I'm takin the car in for a bit of work/refurbishment and I'm just going to ask the mech to fix it while he's at it. I wish I were mechnically skilled, but I'm not, and I gave up pretending. I have no idea if you're missing anything, but maybe have your LBC mech check it out while installing something else.

The turn signals power is routed through the hazard switch. it directs power to the hazard circuit when on and cuts power to the signal circuit. then when you turn it off it reconnects the power to the turn signal circuit.
It's very probable that the contacts in the hazard switch are dirty/corroded, and are not always (or ever) allowing the power to get to the signals.
If you test the circuit and find that the power stops there, you can carefully disassemble the switch and clean the contacts with with an alchahol coated cotton swab, or a soft brush on a dremel tool,
Or you can order a new switch
