I would start chasing wires. Sounds like a gremlin is reeking havoc on you.

I posted about the same issue (right side only for me) a few days ago... Somebody mentioned a switch on the column, I haven't done much more than chase wires and thats got me nowhere. do your tail lights still work fine? mine does, just lost blinker and brake light.

Located in your fuse panel inside the cab, the "blinker box," is what controls the blinkers, as far as I know. Mechanic switched it an BAM, it worked.
