right turn signal flashes then blows the fuse...

[fordguy87]

When I turn the left turn signal on it works and flashes just fine but when i turn the right turn signal on it flashes once and then blows the #5 fuse. Also when i turn the hazard switch on it blows the #5 fuse and the brake light fuse. Any ideas??

you have a short to gound in the right light circuit. time to start looking at wires from the sockets back. Have you looked at the bulbs? It may be shorted at the bulb. Remove the bulbs and see if the fuse still blows.

I checked the bulbs and they all look fine but i didn't try it without the bulb in the socket. I did check the wires and cant find anything that would cause a short. The wires going into the back of the hazard switch are confusing because theres prongs on the switch that dont have wires pinned into the connector going to them.
