So the bulb works, but when it's in your left turn signal it doesn't? Seems to me like the wiring harness on that side is corroded or something and might need to be replaced.

Oh, I see...well, I think there's a relay to each blinker (I could be wrong on that). Maybe the one on that side just went bad and needs to be replaced.

when those fuses go they can act really weird. try replacing the silver round fuse in your fuse block, 9/10x that will fix it.

You can go at this two ways.. Tech or Bubba.

Since it seems like an easy problem, I try it the Bubba way.. I'd replace the bulb..

The Tech way is to check for power at the Load and yadda yadda.. No one seems to like reading it.. So I won't write it down..

But yeah, I believe that the filament is out and it's causing wierd things to happen..
