Going to RRC2023 last week, I lost all my gauges just after leaving home. Pulled over to check things out and found a blown fuse. Blew a couple more before I figured out it was the left turn signal. Didn't use them for the rest of the weekend. I asked around and someone suggested I check the flasher or turn signal relay. I dropped the fuse panel and found this. Did someone swap my relays around?

I had a similiar issue and is was:
“If the left turn signal is causing issues, the most likely causes are the turn signal housings front and rear, and the side marker light. Or the wires going to those.”
Good luck, fuse panels that have PO handiwork can be challenging
