You sure brakes lights dont go through combo switch? It has to something tells which rear lamp to flash while breaking. I believe you have a bad combo switch I keep a bunch on my shelf for the same problem.

What year is your truck. And where did you find the flasher. The flasher for my 2000 I had to remove my stereo to get to it not easy to find or see or feel for that matter. Even trying to get the cover off was a chore in its self.

had the same issue, with led 1157 on the tail lights. switched back to regular 1157 both sides and sprayed all contacts sockets with wd40. it remained with the same issue as the op mentioned above. removed my tool box off the tailgate and slammed it hard shut and every thing was back to normal... probable cause, loose contact....

Book time should be about 0.3 hours on that. If their labor rate is 125/hr, that means they whacked you $232.50 for a flasher? Even if they have a 1 hour minimum labor charge, they got $145.00 for it. Something seems just plain wrong about that.

Welcome to the party. There is a section on these boards specific to your truck.
1994.5 - 1997 7.3L Power Stroke Diesel - Ford Truck Enthusiasts Forums
Start a thread over there. You will get better advise from people who have turned wrenches on the same truck you have.
