Turn signal issue

[ehiforgot]

Half of right taillight refuses to blink all of a sudden. All other functions work properly. Any advice?

Bad filiment in the bulb, wire problem or socket is corroded.

As doug already stated it is probably a bulb issue, 1 or the 2 filiments is out. Test to see if that brake light comes on, it uses the same wire filiment.

Thanks guys! I’ll have to check in the morning tomorrow. Although if the day time running lights work why wouldn’t the turn signal work?

Because you have one bulb still flashing, otherwise it wouldn't if both are out.

Make sure the metal ground tab on the housing and ground tab on the bulb socket make good contact.

Yeah, discovered this was the issue. The bulb is loose in the socket, causing it to lose ground. Got it fixed now, thanks to everyone for the input.
