Default Headlight & turn signal problem

I have a 2004 dodge ram 1500 5.7,, a few weeks back my turn signals stoped working and would only work if i had my low beams on, they wouldnt work with my high beams on. Now i have no low beams and no turn signals. High beams do work..
I put my 4 ways on and all 4 ways did work, now only back passenger light flashes with 4 ways on.. Any help would be greatly appreciated or where would be a good starting point to trouble shoot. Thank you in advance

Sounds like the multifunction switch. I had to change mine a couple years back.

Well I went through and cleaned some grounds. All new bulbs. I took the FCM out and reinstalled it and...... grrrr Atleast I have high beams and low beams now. But my turn signals only work with low beams on.. Headlights off, no turnsignals. Markers lights on, no turn signals. High beams on, no turn signals. Low beams on, I have turn signals. If I put my 4 ways on all four corners flash like they suppose to. On the multi swtch on the column my wipers and pisser's still work. Gonna try the relays that my wiring harness connect through my plow next i guess..

Sounds like u need a TIPM. check to make sure u have output from ur multi function switch at the tipm then make sure u have output from the drivers in the tipm. Ur gonna need a wiring schematic.
