Default Signal lights not working Please help!!!

As the title states. Earlier this week I fixed A loose ground wire (the one that goes from the battery terminal to the motor mount) and now it seems all of a sudden my turn signals stopped working. All other lights work: Headlamps, tails park lights, fogs and even emergency flashers but no signals. Does anyone know where I should look?

Yes I tightened it back to the motor mount, but the signals worked even when it was loose. The wire wasn't hanging or anything, the bolt just backed off enough to mess with grounding the battery to let me start it.

Anyone else? Or even if someone could tell me where the signal fuse is located. I know where the fuse boxes are but I just don't have the owners manual Or my haynes book to look it up.

Have you tried swapping in new bulbs to eliminate that possibility of just rotten luck and them both going out?

I'm going to assume that the fuse for them is connected with something else but you say everything else works so i'm gonna say i doubt its the fuse tbh

No I didn't try that. If it was a bulb I would just have a fast flash and the dash indicator lights would still work. I have none.

Could be the turn signal/flasher relay, try replacing that, it's usually in passenger compartment fuse box.
