    I was driving the mav last weekend and my turn singles quit working. I have checked all the bulbs and grounds. all the lights work, brakes,parking and driving and side marker. Fuse is good and I replaced the flasher, I didn't know witch flasher was turn and emergency so I moved the new one to each spot and checked to see if they worked. Emergency flashers won't work either.

    Do you think the turn single switch is bad ?

    With all that gone bad at once, it very well could be your switch - do you have brake lights

    When a turn signal switch goes bad...it does weird things.

    When you hit your brakes the power to the brake lights goes up the column to the turn signal switch and back out again - your switch also sends the turn signal power out those same wires - brake lights still work/signals don't - probably the switch
