Default Turn signal/marker light problem on 89

Hi All,

I recently bought an 89' and the left front turn signal bulb and the side marker bulb does not power on with parking lights. The left turn signal will flash, but only the rear is illuminated and it flashes very slow.

Neither does the left turn bulb power on with the running lights as it should. However, all bulbs work when the four-way flash is engaged. The right-hand side of car works fine both with parking lights and turn signals.

I've check all the connections and everything seems tight. I did find a small plug with blue/black wires which isn't plugged into anything, but darn if I can find a mate for it.

Can anyone at least point me in a direction to investigate? I'm horrible with car electrics and clueless as to where to start.

v/r
Rob

Got it. The socket was bad. Always a good feeling to figure something out.
