Make sure that the flasher unit is grounded via wire "C" from the connector of the unit. The flasher unit is not grounded internally (to the housing).
Also, some newer flasher units are not short circuit protected and blow like a fuse when overloaded...keep a spare on hand.

9 out of 10 times its the unit, make sure its not the bulb in the cab, and that they are actually flashing on the outside!

Blinkers

I am having the exact same problem. I ordered a new flasher unit and will let you know if it corrects the issue.

Replaced the flasher unit and my blinkers all work now, but my front marker lights still only come on if I chose "park" on the light switch. Rears work fine.

Download the schematic. The wiring on a Deuce is relatively simple to troubleshoot. I had a similar problem and it was caused by lack of good ground.

I believe unless you modify the wiring of the deuce, that the front markers only come on if you have the left switch in "park" These are not wired like a car, the front markers do not come on with the headlights or "parking lights" like a car would.
