Ya well my hazards work on the car but my blinkers don't work and my gauges don't light up anymore and I've checked the fuses and they are all ok. And I don't think this should be doing this but when door is open with headlights and all on my lights all blink a little which is going with the device that makes that noise when the door is open. Also I found a the front lights have a ground on the headlight bucket and is right next to the battery tray and I was wondering if that could be the problem.

Sure sounds like a bad ground to me.

Ok I've found out the fusible link that goes to the 8 connection terminal that connects to the back of my fusebox  is seriously corroded and was just a little piece still connecting to my fuse box and what would I have to replace all the wiring going from the terminal and the terminal itself because of that one corroded connection. Need some help because I dont if I should go get just some wiring off another 73 in the junkyard if thats all intact and would that be affecting my gauges not lighting up and turn signals?

Ok, that was a little bit hard to read... use commas please LOL

you don't need to replace, can be done. Juts get new terminals, cut the wire at the end and attach the new terminals... solding if posible. Then insert again on plug/bulkhead

that is very tipical fail on Mopars.

My dash lights or tail lights wouldn't work, I took out all the fuses and cleaned them and the terminals up with a pencil eraser. I reinstalled and havn't had any trouble with lights sense then.
