Turn signal problem...
Turn signal problem... So I noticed the other day that my right turn signal wasn't working. I figured it was a bulb, so I took a look and noticd that the front pass side turn signal/drl lamp is out.
So I bought a new bulb, then I realized the light was working when I went to change the bulb ( I had turned on the headlights to gain room to get at the bulb).
On further investigation, when the headlights are off and the DRL's should be on, the bulb doesn't work.
When I turn on the headlights, the bulb then comes on.
When I hit the right turn signal, it stays on, but doesn't blink (front and rear lamps). Also the green arrow on the dash stays lit w/out flashing.
When I hit the hazzards, the front light doesn't blink, but the rear does. Also both green arrows on the dash flash correctly.
I was thinking flasher, but since the rear flashes with the hazzards, I don't know.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Oh no kidding, I ddn't know that. Thanks for the tip!
I actually never replaced the bulb, once I saw it was lit up I thought it must have been something else. I'll pop in the new bulb tomorrow.

Yes like he said. Make sure you have the right bulb. But it could also be your socket. I just changed my tail light sockets. The would blink regularly but wouldn't do anything with headlights on. Now they work fine. Just my .02!
