I know the fuse block has continuous power due to the hazards having to work when the vehicle is off. Check that and it's good. Haven't done any recent work to cause any loose or cut wires. Like I said the brake lights don't even work. I have seen a couple posts that refer to the flasher relay itself but how would that affect the brake lights??
Some vehicles, especially vehicles that use the same lights for brake and turn signal, the brake lights must go through the turn signal switch. If your cruise is on the same switch, I would check your connection under the steering column. If you tilt the column up to get out of the vehicle, you may have unplugged the harness or broken the wires at the tilt point.
Hi,
If I understand you right based on your post/description, the signal lights would still turn on even if any or both of the flasher relays are removed. Should this be the case, then the signal lights are not getting the power from the flasher relays but from the brake light circuit.
Perhaps your concern is not with any of the flasher, but simply missing or loose ground more particularly with the rear lights. Perhaps you could try determining which of the wires for the brake lights and signal lights (as they come out of the light assembly) would be ground . A test and even possibly a temporary workaround is to hard wire a second ground connection from the determined ground wire of the lights and attach it to any conveniently located bolt or screw to the body. it may be to your advantage to do this on all the rear lights assembly.
Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.
Good luck and kind regards. Thank you for using FixYa.

try replacing the hazard relay it should be under the dash try turning it on and off with your head down by the floorboard to pinpoint the right relay and the location. you should be able to hear it easily. hope this helps.

You might have cut a wire or it could have broken or disconnected. Try tracing the wiring where you hooked up the trailer you may find one broken or disconnected.

Take the turn signal lever and jiggle it, a lot. If they start working, the switch is bad. You can also turn on the hazards and take hold of the button and push it left , right , forward and back and see if they start working. If so, replace the turn signal/ hazard switch.
SOURCE: Where is the turn signal relay, hazard relay, and
It is not the flasher if the hazards work, it is 1 flasher for both turn signals and the hazard lamps. It is in a relay block ( along with the blower motor relay ) under the dash, about in line with the steering wheel column ).
Try tilting the steering wheel all the way up, and test again.
The other quick test is to cycle the hazard switch a few times, to see if it cleans the contacts for the turn signal on the MFS,
