"Looking At" the Fuses is asking to be fooled.

You are missing Ground(s),You've proved that.
Where ever you "Created" the new grounding point is NOT.
(If the lights or Turns are affecting the Alleged "Ground")

I'd pick up an inexpensive DMM (Multimeter) from Sears or Your Local Chinese
Communist Embassy (Harbor Freight) and FIND OUT What's Amiss.

The Wiring Diagrams,Electrical Trouble-shooting Manual and everything else you need is here:

I did check the fuse for continuity and it passed. Also swapped another working fuse to no avail. I think I will try cleaning the ground inside the fuse box but is looks very clean so I don't think it is going to help.
