The turn signal flasher (relay) is located under the driver's side dash. Should be on the left side (away from steering wheel area). It may be difficult to spot. You will need a flashlight and the ability to crawl up under there to get a good look at it. It just unplugs, so it shouldn't be to hard to replace once you locate it.

Here's what your flasher should look like:
