Long time reader, first time poster. It started last fall when I was making a left turn and the blinker didn't reset itself so I pushed it back to the middle. I heard something break and from then on my signals didn't work right. If the headlights are off and making a left turn nothing happens. If the headlights are off and making a right turn the right signal stays solid and only the front signal light is on. When the headlights are on the same thing happens but the left turn signal is always illuminated on the dash and when making a left turn both signals are shown on the dash and solid. I replaced the flasher today but it didn't work. I took off the wheel to see if I noticed anything wrong inside the column and found a broken spring thing that looks like it had no purpose to begin with. I put everything back together and realized that my brake lights don't work. The only time they work correctly is if the headlights are on...but the headlights only work when the car is not running. I had to leave it at a friends house because it was dark. Whats even stranger is when I hit the brakes with the headlights off the left signal comes up on the dash . checked all the fuses they all look good. the worst part is that I could have been driving all day with no brake lights . anyone else have anything happen to them? any advice would be appreciated.
EDIT: the car wasn't driven over the winter, and while it was parked I changed the alternator, changed my amp and sub(already had amp and sub before so no wiring was changed), and removed the 3rd brake light. All of them were done after the blinker problem started.
