The brakes and turn signals are on the same circuit. I'd recommend starting by checking your fuses.
A fuse number 24,,,
The following specifications are for the Ford Contour and Mercury Mystique manufactured throughout 1995-2000.

SOURCE: My turn signals will not work. Fuses and bulbs are OK.
check the flasher located in/near the fuse panel
SOURCE: 1999 f150 turn signals and brake lights out. High mast still work
The signal lights work through a relay but the brake lights work through the signal switch, if both are out I think you'll find the problem is the signal switch.
SOURCE: brake lights
your wires run under the carpet.get under it and trace your wires all the way to the back of car.you hve a short or open cicuit.
SOURCE: 1997 ford contour turn signal problem
Check the left side of the vehicle for a blown bulb or incorrect bulb in one of the sockets. The fast flash is a signal to tell you something is wrong with that side
