Default Stumped on turn signal....did the usuals

Ok so I just bought a 2000 trans am, when I bought it i had no parking lights up front or turn signals, solid green indicators inside, and hazard flashers worked in the rear.

I replaced bulbs and that gave me parking lights. The sockets had previously been replaced. I purchased new flasher units and new sockets. I now have parking lights all the way around, both passenger's side signals and rear drivers side signal.

The front driver's side bulb will not flash to signal or hazard. I can only guess the green wire in the harness to my new socket is dead.

I tracked it back to a main harness but where does it terminate to? COuld it be something else that I am missing?

A bad DRL module could do this, but given the history of the car, I'd trace the wires first. If you probed them at the DRL module, that should give you good info if the problem is in the dash or in the socket wiring.
