    Hi

    2 days ago my horn, blinkers, and flashers stopped working. I replaced the fuses and the blinkers work until I turn it off and they stop. Same with Horn and flashers.

    I would really appreciate any advice.

    Thanks!

    Your saying with the good fuse installed the circuit works?

    When you stop using the circuit it causes the fuse to open again ?

    Yes. The fuse doesn't blow. I reinstall it and the blinkers work fine until I turn them off and they won't come back on. The same deal with the horn and flashers.

    It sounds like the fuse socket might be loose .

    Time to break out the meter

    I had similar situation. Turned out to be the trailer harness control box. Disconnected the harness at the tail lights and all worked again.
