'97 F350 turnsignal problem. Need wiring Diagram

I'm having turn signal problem, all of my lights work good but left & right signals dont. even my flashers work good. So i'm sure it's not the bulbs. I'm thinking it's something going on with the signal switch assy. I've tried replacing the flasher and still no signal, it does'nt even make that clicking sound when the signals are on. Just wondering if anyone might have a wiring diagram for this circuit? THANKS!!

Probably is the switch like Copedawg said. You can find them cheaper on Ebay though.

X2 on that. one is in front and the other is in the back of the fuse box under the dash.

Can thet switch be tested other than replacing it. Or would it be best just to get a new one installed. are they known to go out? Thanks for your help!!

I am sure there is a way to check it but I would just replace it. They are known to go bad, heck even "Track Auto" carries them. I have not changed them on our truck but I have changed them on Rangers before, very easy task to perform.

I don't remember anything being tricky about it. After you get started and you run in to a problem (wich you prolly won't) Just bump this thread with the question. You may need a Torx bit, I dunno.
In the meantime someone else may add some info. Let us know how it goes!

Check fuse #7 15A. It's only purpose in life is to protect the turn flasher circuit.

On the link above ^^^

Click on Section 17 - Lighting
Click on Section 17.01 - Lighting Exterior
Under Diagnosis and Testing click on Electrical Schematics, Turn signal ...

Schematics

hi Busakiller2001,
I think these are the schematics you need for your truck.
