My turn signals started blinking quickly then not at all. I found a burnt front/right bulb and replaced it. Now everything works except the back right, which just blinks quickly. What do you think?

You have a bad ground connection on the back light somewhere. Also check you haven't blew another bulb. The quick blinking is usually a sign of bad bulb?

So I used the truck for a few weeks while the turn signals worked intermitenly. Now I have no lights working in back, turns or brake.

Do you have license plate lamps? These lamp's are all grounded @G414 ground point behind left rear quarter panel and @ ground point G200 behind left front kick panel. I would go for the rear ground point first?
