        I'd just change out that bulb & see what happens ~ I suspect the BlinkerFilament is Gone ~

Took a look and the rear light was blinking along rapidly.  Took a look at the front and it was on constantly.  No blink.  Not dim.  As I was writing this, I went out to double check the right turn signal operation.  Right hand side works fine, but as I am switching back and forth, the front left light goes out and stays that way.  Funky bulb?  Bad ground?  Mice?(my wife, to my horror, brought up that one, and she knows what that means.  No mice though), Bad relay?  Is this common and I don't know it?
