Jeff.....

I need a solid negative input, whenever the right or left turn signals are flashing.

Sounds like you would need a control relay with a timer that will de-energize after no power is detected for a couple seconds.

You just need a couple of diodes to do it, just tap in to the two wires at the turn signal switch and if either one goes to ground you'll have your ground.
