Turn Signal Help
I am very frustrated with my turn signals on my 1991 F150. The signals are not working. I have changed the turn signal switch and replaced the flasher. THe hazard lights are working correctly. The brake lights are working correctly. When I step on the brakes and then use the turn signal, the lights on the rear go off until I turn the signal off.
Can anyone possibly point me in the correct direction of what may be causing this? Is there a fuse that I have failed to check?
Thanks!

To the OP - fuse assignment is in the owner's manual. Are the front signals out as well?

Here is a wiring diagram for you truck's directionals.

Yes the front signals are out as well. I think that I will go in the following order of testing:
1. Change fuse (I think its fuse 5 from what I have looked at online) -- Easiest possible issue
2. Check bulbs for corosion/decay/connectivity -- Second easiest
3. Check connections at the rear
4. Check individual wiring routes from the switch.

Bulbs / rear connections are __most likely__ good, since they work with the emergencies and the brakes. (underscore _most likely_; with Ford electrical systems, you never know). So for order of priority, after checking/changing the fuse, I would focus on the turn signal switch next; as the above-linked diagram nicely illustrates, the combinations of contacts that open and close with the various switch positions are....interesting.....
