Default Turn Signals/Hazard Lights

00' AP1

Hope I can get some guidance.
My turn signals randomly stopped working. First thought was to check for blown fuses.. I did a search on here and I was reading about how the turn signals could be out but the hazard lights could be fine and vise versa. Well, both the 7.5 turn signal fuse was blown and the 10 hazard fuse was blown as well. I replaced both of them. When I hit the hazard button the relay "tics" but the lights on the cluster are very dim. The 10 fuse has not blown anymore but I am blowing the turn signal fuse left and right. So I replaced the Turn Signal/Hazard relay but the turn signal fuse continues to go out. I'm thinking that maybe the Turn Signal Switch could be the problem but then why would the hazard lights be so dim?

Do I have a short somewhere?

Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Note: Headlights, tail lights, and corner lights all work fine.

im gunna go with check the wiring. i havent had this problem personally but have seen cars at work having the problem where the bulb is actually screwed up and it works but something is shorted. or check the sockets and try chasing the wires back. to me it sounds like something in the wiring is shorting out. like someone ran lights off those wires and maybe didnt bother fixing the wires after or something.

Thanks, that's actually one of the only things that I haven't done. The wiring is untouched, from what I can see. I did replace the whole connector on the driver side- side marker. I guess I'll just recheck the wiring. Thanks,

If anyone has further suggestions feel free to let me know.

How soon after you replaced the connector did the problem start?

It happened before I changed the connector.

same thing happen to me after i installed LED lights anyone know where i can find my turn signal switch? my turn signal fuse are fine.. hazard works but no turn signal

edit: i fixed it !! turns out it was the hazard button. it would get stuck in some weird way and not allow me to use my signals but will let me use my hazards. now when i use my hazard i have to carefully press the hazard a few times with my signals on until i see my signals working. I think the hazard button is full of dust and may need to be replace or cleaned.

I hate to resurrect an old post, but The same thing happened to me after trying to swap rear turn signal bulbs with LED bulbs. I checked the fuses and my hazard switch, but they still don't work. All other lights and signals work fine, but the rear turn signals do not.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks
