new member with electrical problem

Hi guys I have a 1994 E350 van chassie with a 29 ft motor home on it My problem is quite unique I have rear turn signals but no front turn signals I have front emerg, flashers but no rear flashers, I can turn on the emerg. flashers and the turn signal stick on at the same time and I have turn signals front and rear. The indicator lites on the cluster blink with the emerg. flashers on but not when the turn sig. are on. and I dont have stop lites the running lites work fine. Now Im thinking maby the multifunction switch for the turn sig. problem but that dosent answer the no stop lite problem does the stop lites go thru the multifunction switch or is there a relay for the stop lites some where Im overlooking. The brake lite switch on the brake pedal is fine and it has 12vdc going to it and out of it but not to the stop lites. It has been sugested maby bad ground but all the lites burn strong with no cross talk between them . I used to wire new dump trucks and I know wht can go wrong with a bad ground and this dont seem to be the problem here. But I could be wrong. So where do I go next pls help a new member Terry

This sounds like the sort of problem typically caused by a bad ground somewhere.

not sure but for like $20 you could just run a wire from the front turn lights to the back turn lights so they work in unison, the only problem with that would be you would have parking lights in the back, but who uses them anyway lol, that's what i would do, i mean it's not like it's going to hurt the resale value or anything it's a 94 anyway
