    ^Those two issues are independent and will have to be toubleshot separately. What have you checked so far? Just bulbs?

      I've replaced the bulbs on both the blinker and fog light. Checked to make sure they were plugged in all the way. The wiring to the blinker and the fog lights looks like they have been rewrapped in e-tape, I'm a little scared to unwrap and look after looking at the mess behind my radio..

      Could I possibly wire the foglight off of the other foglight? The blinker I haven't thunk up an easy solution for yet..

        I think you answered your own question
        ...unwrap them and look.

          It's a trap!

          But more seriously, I'm not even sure how to begin diagnosing wiring issues. Unless there is a clear cut or ground issue that is.

            ^Then you are going to have to take it to someone who can/will.

            You are going to either have to learn how to use a multimeter or get good with a test light (have lots of spare fuses if you use the second option) to do it yourself. With my fog light issue it took me a good 2 or 3 hours with a multimeter and the ETK (wiring diagrams) just to track down the portion of the wiring that was letting me down. Then it only took 3 minutes to fix it.
