I'm guessing that you need a digital flasher.  The old school flasher modules rely on the current of a light bulb to heat a metal strip that breaks then makes the circuit.  LED bulbs don't flow enough current.

Maybe something like this:

first - the flasher switch went bad years ago so it has been bypassed.  
 
the blinkers were working previously.  the blinker module was bad and i replaced it.
 
i have tested the new blinker module - it is LED as are most of the lights on the car - it works.  If I go from the module to the battery ground with a test light it blinks
 
the blinker switch, according to my continuity tester, works.  
 
when i turn on the right blinker, the left front and rear blinker lights just stay on.  when i turn on the left blinker, the left front and rear blinker lights just stay on.
 
not sure where to go from here.  am looking for direction.
