Turn signals not working

Turn signals don't work. it just started. Its a 1988 e150 4.9L. everything else works fine head, tail, brake, and hazard lights all work great. Just replaced both buss flasher/ blinker fuses and the bulbs look fine, also cleaned the contacts where the bulbs sit. No clicking, no dash blinker lights.

Suspect the multi-function switch. (turnsignal) these fail a lot.

SOURCE: 2001 dodge neon tail lights inop

looking at your schematics and , you say tail lights don't work , you didn't mention if front parking lights and license plate lights are working , they all come from the same source , a black /yellow wire , a good clue if front work and rear don't , please advise .if fronts work then you have a open circuit somewhere between junction S118 (near breakout for left headlamp) and rear sockets.

SOURCE: 1997 Chevy Tahoe both turn signals stopped working

Sounds like the flasher unit to me. Normally the emergency flasher and turn signal are separate.

SOURCE: 99 Chevy Tahoe... Rear turn signals, brake lights, and hazards

I had this problem, and to be honest, it happened to the left side about a week later...it's the board that the bulbs plug into...it's a very common problem with this model. So popular that you can normally get the socket board off the shelf at a parts store! it's extremely simple to replace, and I replaced all the bulbs at the same time!

I have 89 bronco 2 my brake lights turn signals both work my tail lights don't work have check fuse n blubs what might be the problem

The turn signals and brake lights use the same circuit and filament in the bulbs. The tail lights are on the other circuit which comes from the headlight switch.
Do you have power on the tail light fuse ?

1994 Pontiac Grand am Tailights all work normaly except when the headlights are on and then they don't work at all?

Could be the headlight switch.
The switch has two sets of contacts for the parking lights, the park position and headlight position.
You may need to check the circuit at the switch to see if you are loosing power when the switch is moved from park to head.

Tail Light Malfunction

Try looking for the spot where all your wires come together, near the rear bumper. I was having the same issues until I found the problem today and fixed it. I found a loose ground to the frame the bolt holding multiple grounds was loose. I found it near the rear bumper. I tightened it up and everything started working correctly. Good luck, hope you can find the problem.
