Difficult turn signal troubleshooting. HELP?

I am having the worst time getting my turn indicators to work properly.
I recently acquired a 2000 f250 7.3l 4x4, and the front right/rear left turn signals won't work, along with left brake light.
I've checked bulbs, fuses, and they're fine.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Check the bulb sockets - I had a similar issue on my 00. Look for signs that the bulbs are not making contact w/ the blades inside the sockets. My turn signals would quit when it got really cold then work for a while then quit again. Thought it was bad bulbs for a little while.

Ended up replacing one of the tail light sockets.

Thanks!
Figured it out yesterday!
Wires had been pulled from socket harness, but not all the way out...so they looked fine.
