Blinker Lights

78 F150... a fuse blew a week ago and has been replaced. Blinkers worked for a week and now don’t. There has been no issues up to now. Bulbs look good and all other lights work other than hazards work. I checked the grounds at each socket. Is there any other grounds that I’m potentially missing?

The ground from your engine to the cab.

Also check the fuse box contacts to make sure that there's no corrosion impeding the current.

Check your flasher, it could be bad or it might not have power going to it which could be the turn signal switch

Did you try a known good flasher ? Did you take the flasher out and check for power ? If you have power there, then make up a wire to jump it over and see if all the lights that flash come on. If they do then your turn signal switch is probably bad.

Thanks for all the help! Even though I recently changed the flashers that ended up being the problem... I guess. Changed them again with HD ones after checking wiring and grounds. Hopefully this isn’t a sign of electrical gremlins. The flashers are just from the local ORiley
