Default Blinker light

So my passenger side blinker/driving light is out. It clicks fast when signaling making me think the bulb is out. However when I first unlock the alarm the light goes on?? Is the bulb out or do I have a different electrical problem since it comes on with the alarm?
Thanks

Do you know for fact that the light is out or are you just seeing the fast blink. If the light works when you approach and hit the alarm, you can see the light work. Start the car and walk around. you might see a light that is out somewhere on the right side. There should be at least 4 different bulbs per direction.

Hey Dr. Dan,

Yep checked with the car on and right front daytime light is off when car is on. Rear ones work fine.

Thanks

The alarm lights are the DLRs and are separate from the blinkers. The blinker is most likely burned out if you get the quick flash because the resistance is now lower than if all the bulbs were functioning. Pull the bulb and check it out.
