I bought a 97 continental the dome lights don't work and the front corner turn signals don't work I replaced the bulbs and checked fuses what else could it be.

Is it the turn signals not flashing or the park lamps not working on the front (or both)?

I would suspect the door pin switch for the dome light not working and the multi-function switch for the turn signals.

Welcome! :)

the turn signals work except for the two yellow corner lights on the front.

And when I turn the signals on the two outside lights just light up bright and don't flash

Nope they sure don't. I'm not sure if it's the relay or what
I'm betting the multi-function switch is the culprit.

I would try 'wiggling' the hazard button and turn signal stalk at the same time. I had similar issues on my '93 Mark VIII and that 'fixed' it. I had to replace the multifunction switch once in my '96. I believe it is actually dirty contacts in the multifunction switch that causes it.
