need help fast
 
A while ago I heard a pop and smelled a burning smell in the 1 ton. After that the amber and clearance lights would light up with the brake lights and turn signal/hazard lights don't work. I tried changing the turn signal switch in the column since I thought it might be shorting out in there.. and now the turn signal/hazard don't even work. Idk if I installed the switch wrong or what's going on. Help is really needed, I'd like to get it working again for this weekend. Thanks

On these older truck all the light power runs through the switch, and it could be you issue.

the lights aren't brightening anymore with the brake lights so that's good, but the turn signals aren't working. I'm pretty positive that I wired up the new turn signal switch correctly, but is there a thread showing the correct way?
