Default Signal lights don’t work but Hazard lights do!!

Just yesterday my signal lights stopped working. Theres no light on the dash either and no clicking noise that it makes when it is on. But my hazard lights work just fine. I look at the #19 fuse underneath my steering wheel and it’s completely fine. Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this?

There are 2 paths out fm the relay. L8 to the hazard switch, C9 to the turn signal switch. Probably the turn signal switch is bad since neither side works thru that path.

It worked once i switched out both fuses (underhood 10A hazard fuse) + (under dash 7.5A signal fuse)

but then the turn signals blinks super fast and then after a couple uses it just blows out again. The hazards blink normally but then blow out at the same time as my turn signals too now

FYI: i recently switched out my Electronic Load Detector relay (ELD) because it was giving me a check engine light. After the new one was installed the engine light went away. Then signal lights and hazards went to ****. Do u think that could be a possible reason?
I also had a TPS high voltage engine light but then i scaled my TPS with hondata Kpro and it just disappeared. Do u think that my new ELD relay mightve cause all the issues?

What blows out? Fuse? Light bulbs?
Some general troubleshooting tips: If continuity is good thru a fuse don't replace it, move on to the next thing. Don't shotgun several items, check for operation after each "fix".

The only thing that the eld has to do w this is it's in the same box as the relay so if anything got jacked around w changing eld it could've yanked on wires or terminals on the box. Or if junk dropped in there shorting something.
