Disregard the last answer I wasn't thinking. Have it scanned it maybe the tpim module causing this.

And the tcm would cause turn signal problem? Because I replaced input, output sensors, solenoid pak because it was in limp mode, now running fine just instrument panel problem?

No not the tcm the tpim-total power integrated module under the hood because your lights and a lot of other stuff go through that. It' about 1500 to replace it new
