1979 Ford Bronco 400M engine. Tail lights work but brake lights and turn signal lights do not work. The right signal light on the dashboard stays lit all the time. Is it probably my turn signal switch, a fuse, or the bulbs?

The brake light and the turn signal are the same bulb. Most of the time if the bulb on the dash stays on it is because a bulb is blown and thats the way it tells you.

Usually if my right blinker is flashing fast it means one of my right blinkers is not working either front or back right side. Not sure but I know every vehicle I have ever had was like that. One blinders not working the other flashes fast, on the dash also.
This post he repaired the problem it was the light switch.
Right rear tail light stays lit, won't turn off https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?2301226-Rear-tail-light-stays-lit-won-t-turn-off
If you are not getting power from the headlight switch for that circuit, but the other side works, you'll have to trace the wiring. The socket has two wires plus a ground. One wire is for the tail lamp circuit and the other is for brake-turn signal.
The turn signals and brake lights use the same circuit and filament in the bulbs. The tail lights are on the other circuit which comes from the headlight switch. Do you have power on the tail light fuse ?
You should have the computer scanned for trouble codes for the warning light. As for the tail light, I would check the socket with a test light or meter to see if the socket is getting power for that circuit. The brake-turn signal circuit of the bulb is different from the tail light circuit.
Rear lights are double filament bulbs one side for the lights other side for the brake/turn signals so it still may be a bulb. Do u have a test light or volt meter you can check to make sure u have power there when brakes or turn signals are activated. Or just try another bulb.
