If the dash lights are out and flash when the turn signals are activated on a 2003 Ford Escape, it could indicate a problem with the vehicle's electrical system, such as a faulty ground connection or a short circuit. The turn signal circuit may be drawing power from the dashboard lights, causing them to flash in sync with the blinkers. It's also possible that there's an issue with the turn signal relay or bulb, which could affect the electrical flow. A thorough inspection of the wiring and components is recommended to diagnose and resolve the issue.

There are separate flasher relays for the hazard lights and turn signals. The flasher relay may be out on your blinkers. The relay for the hazards is behing the fuse box. The relay for the blinkers is behind the lower dash panel to the right of the steering column.
