both front blinkers down
Thanks for reading, here's the trouble:
Neither of the front blinkers flash, whether activated with the turn signal or hazard switch. In case it becomes relevant: the car has 360k and has a fog light and ac delete. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
So far:
- I've swapped the relays
- wiggled the switch and sprayed from the outside with electronic parts cleaner
- moves the harness around in search of a change indicating a short
- checked all the bulbs
- visually checked the ground but did not disassemble
- lived with it for two weeks
Thanks again

Update:
1) I checked both front grounds, they looked great but I cleaned and sanded them anyway. for now i'm tending to think that may not be the problem.
2) I pulled the hazard switch and it looks like it may not be performing correctly based on the diagram printed on the side.
-Am I correct in thinking that if it has poles that don't connect to anything it is broken?
- Is there a procedure for bench testing one of these I have not found?
New symptom:
for whatever reason my high beam indicator stays on regaurdless of what i do with the light stalk. This points to a wiring harness problem in my eyes. apart from running the harness does anyone have any ideas?
