Does anything happen if you partially push on it? Like is it making any connection at any point?

Also check your GEM and look to see if there is any wetness around it. You might have a windshield leak.

Check the connector at the multi function switch in the steering column… Often the wires pull out of the back of this plug causing all kinds of problems with blinkers etc.

I wrote up a repair procedure for this problem when I had it on my 99… Look in the how to section for it.

there are actually 2 relays for the blinkers under the dash.... check them both out. also check fuses, and bulbs themselves. verify constant voltage, there is a possibility your plugs/wires are broken at the bulb side.... my connectors have broken locking tabs, and I have to ziptie them together after I install the bulbs
