Flasher unit on 1986 500 SL

[RogHyde]

Can anyone tell me where the flasher unit is located on my 1986 500 SL?
The indicators stay on (don't flash) but I can't find the flasher unit.
Thanks in advance for any help.

I don't know if this applies to yours, but on the earlier SLs the flasher unit was integrated with the hazard warning switch.
If yours is a rectangular switch near the handbrake, that will probably be it.
Try turning the hazards on, and see what they do. If they flash, listen for the ticking.
