ok .. bypass the break switch at the pedal by temporarily unplugging leads and give them connection in a way that allows you to check at tss for 12v at red/black wire while they are connected..

The turn signals work great,all four corners.

The wires at the brake light switch are cut and temp. spliced so I unplugged switch and joined red with red/black wire and I have one brake light and power to red/black wire at TSS. Now if I turn on hazzard switch while BOO switch is by passed both turn signal lights on dash light up but don't flash and I have both brake lights working in rear of truck.

Indicator lamps work on dash, yes

Ok on BOO it is out of adjustment more than likely so when peddle is depressed it makes no contact ..you can test by reconnecting wires and adjusting until you have 12v at TSS again .. also carefully inspect BOO to make sure it is not faulty .. Replace hazard flasher

I replaced both flashers with new ones this morning and now I have brake lights and turn signals but no flashing hazzard lights.

I went to store and bought 2 new flashers and installed them now all lights work but hazzards flashing(which I can live with).

I FEEL LIKE SUCH A DUMB @$$ for picking you guys brains over replacing a flasher!!!!

Then it must be the turn signal flasher .. It's always good to have extra in the glove box that are known to be good .. Don't want to get pulled over for stupid stuff you'll have enough to worry about keeping your foot off the accelerator with all your new power .. Anyway how's she running with the new cam?
