05 5.4 turn signal issues
First off, I'm a newb here and wanted to say a general "thank you" to everyone. Multiple times I've searched the forums and been able to fix minor problems on my truck. Couldn't find anything on my current situation so here we go.
I've got an 05 5.4. When I use the turn signal, either direction, I am blinking as if I have my hazards on. Brake lights, signals, 3rd brake light, everything. As soon as I touch the breaks all the lights go solid and stay that way till I release brakes then go back to flashing. Initial thought was multifunction switch but after pricing those I thought I'd ask for help. So here I am needing advice. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Its most likely a faulty turn signal switch. The brake circuit goes through it.
