Hey, as you all know when it comes to electrical problems I am a complete idiot. Now my problem is my right turn signal won't turn off,when I turn on the left one it looks like my emergency flashers are on.I took the steering wheel off and the cam isn't broken.The only way I can get the signal to work somewhat (rear only) is to remove the bulb in the front. Any ideas?

Sounds like you may have a back feed from a bulb or flasher. This can be a real problem if a single element bulb is used in a dbl element socket. Have you replaced the front bulb with a known good bulb? If that doesn't work try replacing the flasher.
Post the results here.
Good Luck

Prob. need to look a little closer at this unit (turn signal switch)
If memory serves, there's a pin that hits the cam to turn it off.
Also, I believe there's 6 wires that run to that switch & it has a "bunch" of contacts inside. If they get dirty or worn...problems rear their ugly heads.
Should you narrow it down to the switch..., they're easy to change. The wires snake down thru the column & exit right below the dash.
You can note the wire colors, un-plug, & tie them together with a string. Pull the string up with the wires to the top of the column & then use the string to pull/snake the wires on the new unit down into place. 1/2 banana job...!!!
