Default turn signal problem

My 96 had no turn signals, brake lights or hazards. the entire problem ended up being a wire that wasnt sending juice to the right places so we ran a new wire with an inline fuse and now everything works great. oh and btw, for my jeep, the Haynes manual "exterior wiring" diagram was COMPLETELY WRONG. none of the wire colors were correct at all other than black for a ground haha

I've got the same issue right now with my turn signals. None of them are working. Headlights, hazards, and wipers all work. I put a new switch in this morning and nothing changed. Fuses are all good, too. Anyone with a similar problem found another spot I might check?

I also took the advice to clean the wiring harness underneath the air filter box. It was corroded, but I got it clean. Still have hazard lights, but still no turn flashers. I've checked the relay under the dash, checked the other fuses too.

So at this point, I've:
1. changed the relay
2. changed the turn signal switch assembly
3. checked fuses
4. cleaned the wiring harness

Anybody have any other ideas???

My 89 has a flasher for the hazards and another for the turn signals. when I had this problem I swapped the flashers and isolated the problem. one flasher might be more heavy duty than the other but they are the same externally. I now have a similar problem isolated to the right front - turn signal and parking light don't work but hazard does. I've isolated tit to the harness and light socket but can't seem to find anyone who sells the light socket.
