Default Turn Signal (I'm an amateur)

Well my left turn signal is out and I'm having a hard time figuring out why. I replaced the bulb, which usually fixes the problem immediately, and checked the fuse box which turned up no results. Whats my next pursuit?

Hi Folks
You have a couple places to look - first is the steering column (turn signal switch), wiring, and the Daylight running module. The question we need to know, does the front and back lights come on when the directional is turned on? That will help you isolate it. If it is the front light not coming on, then it could be the module. you need to get hold of a Volt/OHM meter and start checking the wiring - it will not be fun.
