Passenger Turn signal not working
Hey Folks,
I searched around but couldn't find the answer I was looking for...I will post the issue here.
When I start my 97 up the day time running lights work as usual. Issue is when I want to turn right, the only signal lights that work are the rears...the passenger front bulb doesn't blink. I have changed the socket because it looked damaged, I checked the ground and that is fine...replaced the bulb.
On a side note, when I hit the hazard switch all the signal bulbs flash but the passenger front...they blink at a normal speed not like when a bulb is blown and they flash really fast. I also followed the harness up to the plug and checked for any corrosion in there, I cleaned the needles inside the plug just to be sure.
I am hoping that someone can help me before I drive my wife crazy and also start to tear my hair out...
Thanks in advance

Fixed
I fixed the issue, after following the wiring diagram from the passenger socket back to the fuse box. I had no idea the turn signals went through the drl relays. I took them out and cleaned the contacts and put them back into the fuse panel and bam...started working once again.
Having a wiring diagram with you makes life so much easier when finding an issue like that.
