Ok i have a 98 fx auto.
The turn signals stopped working then shortly after the hazzards quit.
I replaced the flasher and the hazzards work now but not the turn signals.
I have checked fuses and they were all fine.
Do the turn signals have thier own flasher or relay if so where would they be?
I have also checked and changed the bulbs.
Any ideas?

Check for continuity from the fuse to the light. That should rule out the wires to the light. Since they all failed at once I'm willing to bet its and issue within the steering column. Contacts are possibly corroded.

Your bulbs. Did you change them before this happened?

What kind of bulbs did you replace them with? regular or LED?

Also, are you 100% positive it was the RIGHT bulb? Lots of folks make the mistake of putting a bulb that fits, but is wrong for the socket.

on our tibs, some shorts cause the turn signal fuse to blow. I can't remember right now, but I think it's tied to the stop lights too (and alot of the interior lighting). You'll think it's the turn signal, but it's something else. Check the fuse in the fuse box in the engine bay. I think the fuse is lableled something like H/P (something like that, I'm not in front of my car, right now). It should be located mid-way in the fuse box, towards your driver-side tire.

Have you done any electrical work too?

Which fuses did you check? Did you check the engine bay & the one by your foot?
