2001 Turn signals

I lost my rear turn signals and brake lights on my 2001 F-150. Bulbs look good and I still have running lights. Front turn signals work fine but blink fast. Any one have any suggestions? I tried the owners manual but it's not much help. Any help would be appreciated

Bulbs are duel filament, I believe. Pick up a new one and try it...The fast blink on the front is a give-away that the rear is blown. If you don't want to do that, test it with a multi-meter....or ohmmeter.

There are no relays. The rear brake and turn circuits both go through the turnsignal switch. If the rear bulbs turn out ok, I would suspect the multi-function switch(turnsignal switch) may be bad, or possibly a loose connection in the steering column.
