I have yet to see a decent write up for which relays need to be swapped, or what or where a multi function switch is at the steering column.
I plan to get into it this year at some point though when I try to recreate the one-touch, 3 blink turn signal thing that new cars all have.
The multifunction switch IS the turn signal stalk. On these cars (and most Fords for that matter) the brake lights go into the switch and are split left and right for the rear brake lights/turn signals. Also split for the front turn signals which DO NOT also act as brake lights. And four-way hazards. The parking light circuit does not redistribute here. The rear wires can be obtained here and extended to an electronic flasher. I believe these wires can be found at the body harness in the DKP or along the door frame under the carpet. Turn the hazards on and start probing. If you cut the wire and the corresponding light goes out you know you've found it. Use that as a splice point for the utilization of an electronic flasher.
