Anyone know anything about an 01 F150?

[Ryde _Or_Die]

I just got an F150 and the front turn signal is out. I replaced it and it still doesn't work. Now the parking lights work using the SAME bulb so it gets power. Just the hazards and turn signal doesn't work. Also, the signal on the dash doesn't work either. Anyone know if the dash light is out, if it will casue the signal not to work either or something? Or have any ideas? In the mean time I will be pulling fuses, thanks.

Sounds like a relay issue - turn on the right blinker and listen for the clicking relay (usually under the dash but possibly under the hood). COuld be bad - inexpensive fix.

Well its the left one thats out. Now they both make sound when they are on, but the one thats out is alot faster (which is the case in most cars when the turn signal is not working). Could it still be the relay? Thanks for the help.

The flasher? I don't know if that could be the problem or not - but when the turn signals and hazards don't work - thats what I ususally lean towards.

Generally one side will flash faster if a bulb is bad. Are you sure you've got the right type of bulb in there?

Yeah, actually the one I took out wasn't even bad itself. Something is just stopping that bulb from having the turn signal/hazard work.
