my turn signals were intermittent and i swapped out the flash relay under the dash and now signals do nothing


4 way flashers work 100% so bulbs and wiring are good 4 ways share same fuse as turn sig so fuse is good

i have moved my old flasher relay and also the new one that i bought into the spot for 4 way flasher and both operate no problem i put the known good 4 way flasher in place of turn flasher and no operation

i swapped in a known good column turn/4way/high beam/wiper switch from another truck and all functions work except the turn signals

IS THERE ANY OTHER PART/COMPONENT IN THE turn SIGNAL SYSTEM THAT I COULD BE OVERLOOKING THAT COULD BE BAD?? and yes i know there is miles of wire bunched up in harnesses throughout the truck and the truck is a high mileage rust bucket with other minor problem (not worth putting a lot of money into~~BUT i do need the signals to work because it is my only vehicle to get around right now~~and turning without flashing them signals to let other nearby drivers know that im turning will quickly lead to some red flashing lights in my rearview mirror and repeated tickets to the policemans ball__that i dont want tickets to )

 

could be the switch on the column?

 

Jeff. I've already tried a known good switch from another truck checked every fuse in the whole truck ...Checked for wires that came out of connector at the column switch(a very common problem)...No luck ...I have one more obvious thing that I overlooked I will try in 20 mins or so ...I will update on what happens

 

See my response on the other forum you posted to.
