Default blinker problem.. I know i know

So if turn my hazards on everything works properly except the passenger side front blinker. Also, that same blinker does not work for the day time running lights, the really bright orange color. That same blinker does work when you turn the headlights on and the blinkers dim in orange color.

And the right blinker on the dash sticks on the right. I replaced the front right bulb but it still does that same thing- 1.)no daytime running light 2.) It actually does work with the headlights on and the running lights dimmed 3.) does not blink right at all.

Alright now what am I to do...

Mine did that when I first got my car. Remove the bulb. Pop the hood, and pull the bulb socket up through behind the head light for easier access(not to hard may break the wires or something) Clean it, it may be corroded. Also, make sure the prongs that sit on the metal piece on the bulb end are making contact. Take a small flat head and pry it towards the center. Also use the flat head and scrape the corrosion out.

Thats what my problem was anyways. On both front turn signals!!!
