Default No brake light or left blinker?

Checked by relays and fuses and cannot find any blown. Although I dont have a good diagram to know exactly which one I'm lookin for.
is there a separate fuse for the left blinker and brake lights together?
my four ways work(minus left front blinker)
also my rear driving lights ( which is same bulb as brake lights) work.
this is odd to me and any help would be appreciated!

Hi Steve,
Did you check the bulb for the left front turn signal?
Can you tell us just what year, model vehicle you have?
Are we correct, that you at this time have no stop lights at all?
Some vehicles have separate rear lights for 4 way flashers and not knowing what kind of vehicle you have ,cannot determine what is working and what isn't.
All vehicles have a separate lighting system for tail(running) lights and brake (stop) lights.

Sorry didn't realize I forgot to put the make and model!
it's a 2004 F250 5.4L
I changed the bulb. That's how I realized there is no power and the lack of brake lights.

Do you have a copy of the ower's manual?
The reason I ask is the fuses and what they protect and their location are shown in the owner;s manual.
Do you have any problem getting the shift lever out of the park position when you are ready to move?
Brake pedal position switch is part of the shift lever interlock circuit and also involves the stop lights.

I had an intermittent front-right blinker light for years, and bulb was changed a couple of times. Eventually, I had an issue of no brake lights, but brake light on cab worked. Turned out to be the multi-function switch (MFS) on steering column. Never again had an issue with blinker or brake lights.

Cause was not enough slack in steering column harness, causing pins to partially pull out of the MFS when steering wheel was tilted.
