I am getting a missing argument error and I am following the answer here.
Python: TypeError in Threading. function takes x positional argument but y were given
What am I missing? Help a newbie.

From answer
"each character is being passed as a separate argument to startSuggestworker.

Instead, you should provide args a tuple:
t = threading.Thread(target=startSuggestworker, args = (start_keyword,))
"

    self.thread = threading.Thread(target=self.threadManager(), args=(fl,))

TypeError: threadManager() missing 1 required positional argument: 'fl'

Here is the signature for threadManager()

def threadManager(self, fl):

       #code 

Edit
Add more context:
Some how this code works for me

self.thread2 = threading.Thread(target=self.startProcess2, args=(fl,myData))

And the definition for startProcess2

def startProcess2(self, fnfull, myData):

     #code 

But this fails for me

        if fl != '':

            self.threadx = threading.Thread(target=self.threadManager(), args=(self,fl,))

            self.threadx.start()
