Replacing the flasher will probably fix your blinker problem. Also check the fuse. If it's only happening on one side you could have a burnt out light bulb or the cam inside the column could be going bad. But I'm pretty sure the light wouldn't come on if that was the case.

Hey! I don't even have a lock cylinder, I've gotta use a screw driver. If you take off your taillights and the center thingy in between them I'm pretty sure you can adjust the lock. Or at least bend what it's mounted to to make it straight.
