Default Signal lights

Hey
I have a1988 c4 corvett that the single lights don't work. Every time i hit the single lights they all blink as if the hazards were flashing. The blinker in the dash blinks normal speed and flash normal. But out side of the car they all blink. I've changed the turn signal flasher, the turn signal switch, brake switch, hazard flasher,headlight dimmer switch, new battery,new battery cables, new alternator. Would you know where the turn signal relay would be? Someone told me it was the circuit board

The car is missing the antenna. and the rear ground strap is connected to it .would that affect the lights because that's the only ground that's missing. I tried to ground it straight from the battery. Got a jumper cable from the battery to the frame and nothing. I even cut the rear side blinker grounded it to the frame and still nothing. I took it to a mechanic twice and they couldn't figure it out. Someone put a new gas tank on it at didn't put back the antenna is their a way I can jump the connection
Thanks for the help very appreciated 🙏 thank you

Have you checked the wiring? You might have an issue with worn insulation or possibly an animal chewing on the wires causing a short or ground problem.
