    Hello all!

    My left turn signal started to cancel whenever I would engage my brakes. I was too concerned about it and didn’t make it a priority.
    I was just driving and my turn signals stopped working entirely. No clicking sound, no dash light, no signal front or back.
    I just got to work and take a look at it at the moment.

    The only bulb that is the issue is my left turn.
    However, it’s not burnt out as both signals don’t work or even acknowledged they’ve been “turned on”.

    When I get home I plan on checking the wiring/socket in the left rear housing.

    Any thoughts? Thanks so much!!!

    Check the fuse first .

    do your hazard lights work?

    Do you have a Evil converter box for a 4 pin trailer light plug??

    Known to cause all manor of light problems.

    Yes! Hazards do work. I did check that and forgot to add that into the post!

    I do have a trailer plug. Now it was already on the truck when I got it so I don’t know anything about it.


    Appreciate the help. Don’t know anything when it comes to electrical hahaha still learning!

    The 7 pin plugs are not usually as much of a problem but any connection can work loose and cause a open circuit or a short to ground.
