No, separate flashers. Here's a wiring diagram from over at "My Mopar"

I don't know where the flashers are. Some late model stuff, the 4 way is on the fuse box. Signal flashers are up under the dash, remove the ashtray and look// feel for it clipped up there up under the dash rim by the ashtray, if not, over around the glove box.

If changing the flasher does not help, make sure you have power to the flasher. If you do, refer to the diagram, and probe around the connector under the steering column which goes up to the switch. A good place to probe and access the rear lights is the connector in the left kick panel.

one way to see if your turn signal cam broke off inside the wheel is try the cancellation. flip the turn signal so it would be flasshing left. then turn the wheel left a full turn and back a full turn. if it doesnt flip to off then you got problems in the column
