Those are on different fuses so the possibilities that come to mind are grounds or the column switch. All three of those are turned on by the same stalk and have a common wire harness and connector under the covers just behind the steering wheel. Sounds like the connector may not be connected or not fully seated.

I don`t know much about 95 4Runners, but i would double check the fuses again, sometimes they can corrode and not make good contact in the fuse box. Ive had this happen in my 86 4Runner a few times. Once your sure there is no problems in the fuse box, then star checking the combination switch, sometimes the contacts get pitted from use over the years and that can cause the switch to not work.

ok, i checked all the fuses and were ok, so I looked on the power cable at the battery post and it was durty so i clean it. the lights in the dashboard and headlights started working but not the signals or the emergency lights so I check the switches and found out the emergency light switch was broken. I replaced it and now everything works so thank you guys
