No turn signals 1976 F150 Ranger

I have all the corner marker lights working but no flashers. I found two flashers for turn signals. I replaced both of them and now I have taillights that will flash with the emergency flasher, but the front lights don't come on or flash. The actual turn signals don't work front or rear.

So in other words, I am kind of stuck on what to look for next. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan

Check your ground wires for the front and rear lights. Remove screw that grounds the wires to metal and clean the metal and the terminal and re-install. That's a start anyway.

Trace each circuit for the correct signal voltage starting from the light socket all the way back to where the voltage should be present. In the Navy we called this "shooting the lines".

.... you'll probably end up at the turn signal switch (TSS) with nowhere to go.

This assumes grounds are, in fact, grounded, and the correct bulbs are installed correctly.
