Stupid me was disconnecting my trailer from my Sub last night in the rain and forgot to make sure the car was off completely. There was a short in the wiring and I lost taillights, dash lights and turn signals. Replaced fuses and flash combo relay and got everything back but the turn signals. Hazard lights still work fine so I know the bulbs are good but I can not for the life of me figure out why my turn signals won't come back on. I have no signal indicators on the dash and not signals at all 4 corners. Is there some other relay I should change?

Hello,

It sounds like you cooked the flasher in the convenience center here is the wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works and the flasher location so you can change it out.

When I turn on the parking lights or head lights, then, when I turn on the left signal, the lights will flash very fast + the back up lights will go on and flash too. This dos not happin when I turn on the right signals.
I made sure that the signal and parking bulbes are of the correct ones. Can you suggest what I can do?

I would inspect the wiring and see if anything is pinched or rubbed threw another wire. Also inspect the grounds and make sure they are clean.
