Ok they work fine but today I washed the undertail with some bio green degreaser and clean the bike up real nice and the turn signals won't work. All of the fuses are fine the only thing I can think off is a relay bolted to the undertail with 3wires one has power the other 2 do not I'm going to the parts store but is that relay has anything to do with the turn signals??

If you're talking about the gilera thing, that could very well have been filled up with water.
Perhaps you could pop off the cover and have a look?
My 2000 X1 was equipped with one that wasn't sealed at all. It's under an X1's seat so it stays dry.

It would be a very good idea to remove each fuse, diode, and relay one at a time, clean the contacts and add WD40.
Up north, we have to do this somewhat often due to roadsalt's fun effects.

If you just got your fuses wet, you could be looking forward to more adventures in bike not starting and stuff.
