Default Parking light/Turn signal problems

Hey,

This problem just popped up a little while ago, it seems that my passenger side parking light is out (Although I have seen it come on once since this problem started) but will still blink as a turn signal. The driver side works but the turn signal blinks really fast.

I have checked all the connections and grounds, cleaned them off.. the fuses are good, I'm not sure what else to do now? I can't get the car inspected till I fix this.

edit: tester confirms no power going to yellow and green wire, what now???

fast blinking means a bulb is out. have you check all your bulbs yet?

All the bulbs are fine, the only thing that doesn't work is the passenger side parking light, I have tried 3 brand new bulbs, plus the one from the other side. There's no power getting to the parking light section of the socket for some reason.

Fixed it. The passenger side connector underneath the bumper (bitch to get at) was dirty.

The drivers side bulb was turned too much, apparently causing it to blink too fast? oh well

Inspection, here I come.
