I found out that my turn signals do not work at all. No lights no flasher.
But the 4-ways work perfect. I thought that they used the same flasher, but now I am not sure.
Someone give me a starting point here. Hopefully it is not the switch in the column.
 
I am looking at the schematic provided by Dremu, and remembered that the hazards and turn signals used the same pn# flasher but that they are physically separate.
I swapped them and got the same results so the flasher is not the problem.

The things that do work that run through the direction switch are:
Brake lights
Hazard flasher
Horn relay
 
Here is a direct link to the diagram.

I am reading it like this. Someone tell me if I am wrong.

If I hit the brake pedal power will go like this:
Battery
Stop fuse
stop lt. switch
into pin (p) of the direction switch
then out of pins (N, M, J, H)

all that works fine

Hazard lights take the same path but the power comes from the hazard flasher, through pin (K)
That works fine too...

For the turn signals the power must come through the turn flasher to the direction switch on the PPL wire into pin (L), but where does the power come into the flasher???

That is the only thing I can think of that could be bad.
