05 explorer directional trouble

The other day while driving my wifes 2005 Exlporer Limited, I noticed that the blinkers would work and then seem to stop as the light on the dash (both directions) would blink and then go solid as if a light was out.  I then cancelled the turn signal and turned it back on.  It again blinked a couple times, then had the arrow go solid.  I know with older  cars such as my antiques, they had a flasher switch.  Does the newer cars still have this or is it all built into the turn signal switch inside the steering column?  If so where is the flasher switch located and can it be easily replaced?  The weird thing is that it does not do it all the time.  It happened a lot on Sat and then was fine since then.  Can anyone give me some insight on this?  I have some factory service manuals for this vehicle available to me but have to get them from my friend.

Thanks for everyones help with this as I want to have my wife be safe in her car with our child.

Look in your fuse box. It is most likely that the flasher/relay is in there
Make it idiot proof, and somebody will make a better idiot!
