Identical problem. Turn signals and emergency flashers stopped working. fuses for both are good. changed anyway along with new flashers. on the ford E-350 I even put in new turn signal switch unit with no result.all other functions i.e. wipers and washers work. all other instruments, radio, headlights, tail lights, brake lights, dome light work. I know someone out there knows about this particular to '97 ford products problem. I've got a bald spot on my head from scratchin.
Hi.. I think you have to check for any loose or dirty wire connection or fuse holder case. try unplug inspect and replug.
Hi..these may be one of the reasons.
one is the relay problem
second is the wiring problem which leads
to the turn signals
third is the switch problem
these might be one of the reason which could
lead to the problem.
thank u..
Hi you will have to check to see if you have power and ground to each plug if you dont have one or the other then you will have to follow the wires to the bad spot.most of the time it is a bad ground at or near the plugs. if you need any more help just let me know i will be glad to help you
Sir,
Your problem appears to be the turn signal flasher or turn signal
switch – it may need to be replaced.
if all the other lights work then the fuse is ok the problem is
elsewhere .
I would feel under the dash around the steering column for the flasher
unit
when the 4-way flashers are on, feel for it, and whatever location it
is in check for another flasher unit connection and you would have
found the culprit
I hope this helps
thanks
good luck

Also I would suggest that you start looking for an open ground circuit somewhere in the engine compartment as this would be the ONLY correlation of the brake lights interacting with the front turn signal and dash turn signal lights.
There is a possibility that you have developed a problem within the steering column of which would be only the other possibility as the BRAKE LIGHT wire is shorted across to the front turn signal wires.
This is EXTREMLY rare and I would concentrate on a loose and or missing ground circuit in the engine compartment when the heads were worked on. It is HIGHLY probable that a ground wire was not properly attached and or came loose and what you are getting is a BACK FEED thru the brake and turn signal circuits.

Since both the turn signals and emergency flasher are out, do they receive power from the same source? Is it protected by a fusable link and if so, where? Are there 2 flashers? I found the listed flasher on both vehicles and on the pickup, replaced the turn signal assembly with no result.
