Default Left turn signal not flashing

Not sure if I screwed something up when the car was up on stands but now the left turn signal blinker won't flash it just comes on without blining on the dash the green light blinks but only the right side blinker actually blinks

I don't see a separate relay for the left and right turn signal light.

what is the likely cause of this? thanks.

Bulb.

If the right side blinks, select the left side and see which bulb is illuminated. The good bulb should be on steady.

If that doesn't work check the blinker fluid reservoir.

Did you check the other bulb on the same side (front/rear)? It could be burned out.

weird, it works now and I did nothing lol

kind of worried that it will stop working again while driving.

the car has some weird electrical issues, my passenger side power window suddenly would only go down but not up again and then it starts working all of a sudden......

my power mirror on the passenger side only goes one way and now back the other etc .

After you replace the bulb, fuse, and clean your grounds and bulb contacts, check the wiring behind the switch. Mine frayed and I had a similar problem.

could all these problems be related somehow? I will try and replace the window switches and clean up the grounds.

not sure where all the grounds are.

my driver side power seat also just goes up and down not front and back so I assume the switch is broken. It was working a few months ago but now it only goes up and down.
