Blinker not working, also half of taillight flashing?

Ok, so all the bulbs are good. But whenever I try to turn on right blinker the light just stays on but it wont flash like it should. and whenever I push the brakes the passenger taillight lights up on only the left side of it. but the driverside taillight lights up fine... any idea?

I had the same problem and found out that the front amber running lights crack and get water in them. If this happened, unplug the light, drain water and let fixture dry out for a couple days, You can fix the cracks with regular clear silicone. Good luck!

If all the lights light up as they are supposed to and are not blinking, you just have a bad flasher.
