Default Blinker Issue
Replaced the drivers side front blinker! The blinker stays solid the whole time?

Did you put an 1157/2057 in there? If you put an 1156/2056 in then it would likely stay solid all the time because it's a single filament bulb. You need double filament for it to work properly. Just a guess based on provided info...

Just get a test light and rewire it. You said the wires don't match up so match them up...

Or, use a test light and determine which wire is hot when your parking lights are on, and which is hot when your blinker is on. If the other side works then you have a template to refer to.
