Tail light problem

I have got a 94 F150 XL and I have got no turn signals no four ways on the rear and no brake lights not even the cab stop light. I have checked fuses, brake light switch, and the flashers. They check out ok. I did not know if the turn signal switch might be the problem. Thanks for your help.

I Believe The Circuits Run Through The Switch.

Check fuse F13. If blown, it will take out all of these circuits.

If blown, you should suspect the cruise disconnect on the master cylinder to be leaking and shorting out.

Since the third brakelight is also out, the problem is not in the MFS since that light's power is not routed through the MFS but is direct from the BOO switch.

That's correct. I would check all the fuses and see if you have power at the brake switch green wires.

No need to check all the fuses, just check # 13 only.

This problem has been around for a long time in quite a few Fords, not just trucks.

Thanks for the help. I traced the problem to the multi function switch, it seems to be the problem. I checked the third brake light it had a bad bulb, It works fine. Thank again.
