Default Turning signal and Brake light problem. PLEASE HELP!!!

OK so on the passenger side of my 1993 camaro z28 my front turning signal and rear turning signal do not work. When i put my parking lights or headlights on my rear lights work but when i push the brake pedal down the passenger side brake light doesnt work. When i put my turning signal on i get a solid green light but my turning signal does not come on. All the lights on the drivers side do work. When i put my hazards on just the driver side lights flash. What could cause this problem? If i took it to my local car audio/electronics shop would they be able to figure it out and fix it?

First check the right side tail lights for burned out bulbs. The bulbs are dual filament... a dim filament for running lights and a bright filament for brakes and turn signals. Either filament can burn out without affecting the other.

Next check the tail light sockets for corrosion or bad connections. Finally, check the dark green wire for breaks or damaged areas.

The turn signals will go on but not flash any time there is a bulb missing or burned out on that side.

A quick search for "turn signal" would have produced dozens of threads with this same information.
