90 240 Front Passenger blinker not working
I searched through the forum and I cant find my exact issue on this one.
All flashers working (turn signals) with the exception of front passenger. All parking lights work including the front passenger side. I pulled the wire connector plug by the headlight to the passenger turn signal and it tested that power was going to both parking and the signal. I then pulled the bulb and tested the socket which also is getting power when the flasher is activated. I also tested the bulb in the driver side flasher and it worked.
Note that when I activate the flashers they do rapidly flash. I also have the "bulb out" indicator activated on the dash.
The terminal on the front passenger signal does not appear corroded and I did spray it with some electrical contact cleaner.
Any ideas?

if the bulb works in the other socket, and there's voltage on the socket's pins, then they aren't making contact with the bulb, thats really the only thing left.
are these the proper chrome base bulbs, with contact bumps that are 'lozenge shaped' rather than brass base with round dots? I find the usual american brass base bulbs don't work well in european sockets. most car parts places should have Sylvania "OEM" bulbs on green hang cards that are the chrome version, actually Osram bulbs.
