Finally rounded up a good volt/ohm meter hopefully I will know by tonight if the switch is the issue.

Well the switch fails a few of the tests. So the switch is bad.....

Anybody have the part number or a good source for the switch? or other options?

I figured I would say what I did to get things fixed.

I went and removed all scotch locks and soddered and repaired all the wires. Problem of no right brake light and turn singles was still there.

Put a new multi function switch in and everything is working great!

Thank you to everyone that helped me get this little problem figured out.

For those in the future that come across this problem start by checking the multi funcion switch it was much easier then taking the complete dash apart looking for issues.

Thanks for posting back. It's nice to know the solution to a problem in case others have the same problem. 8)

I know exactly what you mean! I can search and find the same questions most of the time but usually there is not a verified answer or at least what worked for them posted. SO I am trying to help one problem at a time!

You gave me the magical piece of paper that made it possible, thank you!
