I was driving home and I switched my turn signals on and they buzzed and stopped working. I tried my hazards and they don't flash. All it does is buzz down in the fuse box on the passenger side on the center console. I checked the fuse for the turn signals and for the hazards and they were blown. So I replaced both. I try them again and they blow again. Do you have any idea of what could be the issue?

Hello, I'm Ken Ill be helping you today, from what you have described it sounds like you have a shorted bulb or socket, can you remove all hazard bulbs to inspect?
