F250 CC and Blinker problems

First let me start by saying the knowledge in this forum is awesome. Ive used it to solve many of the problems on my truck and I thank you all!

Now on to what the search button couldnt fix.

I have a 03 F250SD 4 door FX4 Century addition 5.4L automatic. Last week my cruise control, the overhead temp/compass thingy also quit displaying (the dome lights do work). Also the turn signals stopped working, however the wiper controller does work. Ive read for the last 3 days on different things.

the horn works fine (used often)
Brake lights work fine
Reverse lights have been removed to make room for strobes (just back up until i hear a bang or crunch)
I have literally gone through each and every fuse I could find and all are good.

Normally i would not have a problem with the blinkers not working, but im going out of town this weekend and the cruise control is going to be needed.

When my turn signals stopped working it turned out to be a bad Multi-Function switch. It's basically the entire turn signal stock assembly. The CC might go through that as well but I'm not sure. Do you have another truck handy where you can borrow the part for testing? It's super easy to change so it's worth trying before you actually buy a part that you might not need.

Hope you figure it out soon.

Sadly I do not have another truck like mine to test this with. Normally I would agree with you, but I wouldnt expect the overhead compass/temp computer to also stop working.

Correct,
The overhead console is on a completely different harness. Actually runs the other way towards the passenger side as well. Plus your cruise isn't working and I think those wires are different than the multi function switch as well.

Do you have cab lights?

Yes, the cab/dome/map/courtesy reading lights are working just fine.

I have a 2005, I do not know if yours is like mine. I was not getting a blinker on the front right, a fast blink on the right rear and no light on the dash. You could hear the clicking under the dash. I moved the turn signal stalk down just a bit but not off. The light on the dash would come on, the blinker came on in the front and the rear blinked correctly. I had to change the multi swith blinker system.
