If you look at page 10 of the wiring diagram you posted, it appears that the turn signal lights on your dash (which you advise work) are activated by the same switch in the combination switch as the turn signals on the car body.
No, they don't work on the dash .

Thanks for the clarification. In your first post, you advise that when you replaced the blown 30 amp fuse, some things started to work again and then stopped. I‘d be curious at finding that connector to the EFE heater, that this 30 amp fuse controls, and disconnect it, to see if the fuse still blows at ignition on, and if anything that wasn’t working starts to work again.
How did DRL, headlights, horn, etc., start working again, when early on in this thread they weren’t working?

Update:

Found EFE and unplugged it, 30A fuse did not blow on startup

Blinkers and hazards still not working

Mechanic who helped said to leave the EFE unplugged it didn't really serve a purpose he thought but said he wasn't 100 percent sure -my eyes bulging as a don't want to leave something and make everything make anything worse

It's currently unplugged drove from mechanic to grocery store that way

The DRL, headlights, horn, etc weren't working because I had put the 40A relay / fuse back in the wrong spot... that's what actually prompted me to write the post here... make sense? The initial problem that prompted me to move the 40A fuse and test that is the blinkers and hazards not working..

I don’t have a Metro parts catalog, so cannot confirm that a 01 Metro combination switch would be compatible with your car…..
REgarding the EFE heater, Fordem advises that it might make the engine difficult to start or run rough. Now that it’s disconnected, does this happen??

Not yet but am liable to reconnect.
when I asked him if I should get a new one he said made like it was irrelevant it was a part that doesn't really do anything that car manufacturers were putting in cars at that time .. does anyone think I should replace this the EFE..?
Car has run fine so far thankfully with the 30A blown and no risks taken with this car!
