Front left turn signal is toast? so recently i had to replace the entire socket for my drivers side turn signal and drl. while the socket was bad, that caused my left blinkers to not flash. now that ive replaced the socket and put a new bulb in, my left turn signals STILL do not flash but the light for drl does come on but ONLY when i manually turn on my lights or the headlights automatically go on (right drl light still works perfectly). wut i mean is my left drl doesnt light up at all unless one of those scenarios are met, then itll light up but still no blinky blinky.
is there anything i could check/replace that would cause such isolation of the left drl and left turn signal?

Check the wiring you did for the new socket. Your DRLs are NOT working at all - the light that comes on with the headlights is a parking lamp that uses a different filament in the bulb than the DRLs and turn signals use. You might just have a burned out bulb but since it is new and you replaced the socket, I would suspect the socket wiring first.
