2003 Solara Turn signal problem

[knightbird123]

I own a 2003 Toyota Solara 4 cly. My car is always kept outside in the cold. Yesterday, I started up my car and realized that the turn signals <- -> on the dashboard were not lighting up green. When I put the turn signal stick located on the left side of the steering wheel in the up position or down position, nothing happpened meaning there was no "clicking" sound and the turnsignal lights wouldnt light up. The left and right turn signal changers work completely inoperable. After the car heated up and I drove it for about 4-6 miles they magically began to work again perfectly. Obviously some part is going bad or the weather has affected some device. Any suggestions as to what caused this to happen?

My guess is the blinker relay may have been frozen from the cold. I live in FL, it never gets that cold here.
