Start with the bulb holder, Steven. When you put the bulb in, is it making contact with the bottom connector?

The bulb has two connectors. One is the round casing and the second is the solder connector on the bottom of the bulb.

When you push in the bulb, the casing connector grips the bulb holder either by screwing into place or pushing in and turning a quarter turn.

The bottom connector needs to touch a piece of metal or a spring at the bottom of the holder. If this metal/spring is pushed down, it may not be making correct contact.

Also check and see if there is a fuse for the turn signals/markers. There may be one fuse for each side.

Also check if the left rear marker /signal bulb is good as they can be connected in series. If one bulb blows, the other good bulb still doesn't work.

Hope this helps get you started.

There should two separate bulbs for marker and blinker. It sounds like a bulb is burnt out, bad ground, melted socket or a wiring anomaly. Are you certain it's supposed to have 57 series dual element bulbs for blinker and markers?

My front left marker/running lamp is not working but will work as a turn signal. The right side marker and turn signal are working. Any ideas?

I don't know what you're driving - or the bulb number - but many vehicles make use of bulbs that have two elements. The first is the "running light" and the remaining element serves for "directional" duties. So, it is possible that one bulb has a burnt out "running light" element and a working "directional" element.

When you say you "checked" the bulb, a visual inspection will not suffice. A continuity check is required. You could swap bulbs - if the problem follows the bulb - then it is a problem that a new bulb will solve. If the problem stays with the left directional socket - then you need to test for voltage at the socket and trace back to the common point of the directional switch.

Bought a used 1999 Yamaha v-star with some butchered *** tail light and turn signals. Got everything to work except i cant get left or right turn signals to stay on when i turn on the lights, signal...

The marker ("running") lights are a separate circuit than the signal lights.
Normally you have a tail light, and the front running lights on with the headlight.
The bulbs used in the rear signal lights would be a single filament 1156 bulb, whereas the bulbs in the front are dual filament, one for turn signal, one for running light.

Electrical problem

Find the ground wire on one of the lights and add another ground wire to a good clean metal surface and see if that fixes the problem. It defently sounds like a ground problem at one of the lights.
