Default signals dont work, but hazards do, any ideas?

Alright my friends sc300 signals dont work but his hazards do work. Fuses look fine for the signals, hazards work so there probably inst a short anywhere, replaced the relay for the turn signals and still nothing. Ive even removed the steering wheel and the entire casing.

still have no clue whats up, anyone got any ideas??

Can i join the party? Hazards dont work and my signals blink really fast. I dont mind the fast blinking, however I would prefer normal speed.

Y'all should try what I did. I removed my headlights and checked the wirings. Remove the bulbs and check the connectors. Wires and connectors can crimped overtime.

Did you switch out tail lights from another year SC? That maybe the case since I have a 94 and switched to 95-96 and the blinking is fast due to the resisitors having a higher impedance than my old ones.
