I just replaced the turn signal relay /direction indicators relay and the turn signals and hazards still are not working

You’re going to have to get the multimeter out and check for breaks in the cables. When you turn the indicators on can you here the relay clicking? You might have to remove the fuse/relay board and check for broken traces and cracked solder too.

I messed around with the relay and fuses now they are working for the most part all of the turn signals work besides for the back left one and the Hazzards still arent working. Working on getting a multi meter to check the cables but if there's anything else it might be I'd be glad for the help.

Check for bad earth points. If any look corroded give them a clean. With an old car it could well be part of the problem.

@blank9899 not sure if yours is a RHD or LHD. On a LHD car the indiator relay is on the component panel to the left of the steering column. Above and to the left of the main fuse box.

Sounds like the relay has gone. Check the manual to find the location in the fuse box and replace it with an identical one.
