My brake light and turn signal in the front and back on the drivers side is not working. When I
put them on it doesn't even come up blinking on the instrument panel, the passenger side it fine.
Any idea's what it could be?

Hmmm..I wonder if the switch went bad in the stalk or if a fuse got blown? ANyone else have any ideas?
 






There's a relay, I believe it is in the fuse box, that controls the turn signals/hazard lights. Mine went out just before this past Christmas. It tends to blow real weird...mine went out by corners. First the right side, then the left rear. Anyways, it's an easy fix...it's a $2 part at Pep Boys. You may have to change out some bulbs, as well. I discovered that not only was my relay bad, but the bulbs were blown as well.
 






What is this relay? Do you mean the cylindrical fuse?
If so I just put in a new one and it did not change anything
I also noticed the little green light (when you put on the turn signals)
it BARELY comes on green...please help me figure this out
 






Same Problem but on passengers side of a '99 xlt

I have the same problem but on the passenger side of 99 xlt. No passenger blinker front or back and the indicator does not light up either. Hazzard lights don't work on the passenger side either. But if I turn on the lights the they all light up out side the truck. I changed all the bulbs still nothing. I looked in the manual but there is no mention of a flasher relay. None of them seem to be flasher related at all. Manual is very non-specific about the relays in the Power Distribution Box. I checked all the fuses as well. Does anyone know where the flasher relays are? If it's not a relay it must be the directional switch.
