Need a LOT more info before someone can help you.

Type of rear lights?
How are they wired?
Type of turn signal switch?
New problem? Old problem?

Are you sure they aren't blinking, or are they so dim you can't tell a difference? My wiring is the original from 69, so but the time the current the flasher puts out gets to the light, it has already cut it off again for the next blink and therefore BARELY lights up.

First check that you have not lost ground to rear lamps....
