The flasher will also just stay on solid if there is a short in one of the 4 wires that it feeds. Common spots are places in the harness where those little metal frame clips secure the harness to the frame. There was a modification to the M151A2 Jeeps to prevent flasher failure the short would cause by installing a fuse on the power in wire (460/461).

The solid state flashers are kind of pricey. They can easily be replaced with a normal 2 prong flasher (in 24 volt of course) if need be.
Yes it is the solid state flasher. I will have a closer look at the harness and check it with an ohms meter and see if its open or not.

Thanks for the help. Ill let you know what I find
