Blinkers

Still having problems figuring out why my blinkers don't work . I have replaced the multifunction switch, ignition switch, flasher, checked fuses, and made sure all my lights work(not blown). I don't know if this is a ground problem, but as a possible hint the illumination doesn't work for my gauges and the fog lights don't work. I'm out of ideas and looking for new ones. Any suggestions will be appreciated, thank you!

Ok, I have been searching past posts on this issue and found this: "you replaced the turn signal flasher relay? it is different than the hazzard relay. all the bulbs work? the bi-metallic spring in the flasher wont work as designed if there is too much or too little load on the circuit." Is this true? I replaced the turn signal flasher with the same one as the hazard flasher. Not sure if this is the problem...prob another long shot.
