My turn signals blink fast and then stay lit. My break lights are on but when I hit the break they turn off. Please help me out.

Hello, Do you have high mount brake lites, do they work ok? They are wired a little different than the lower brake lites. The lower brake lites are wired through the turn signal switch. The lower brake lites and turn signals use the same bulb filament, just not at the same time.

Check the bulbs and sockets, wiggle the wiring connectors. You can check for B+ and ground at the sockets.
