So my turn signals work properly when the hazards are on or when indicating left or right. However, the left one does not function when pressing the lock or unlock buttons on the remote or when the headlights are turned on. I have checked my fuses, I've tried different bulbs. Any ideas on what it could be?

So, the parking light on the left side isn't working? Have you checked the wiring?

I'm not sure what you mean by 'parking light'. When using the left turning signal, the bulb blinks, when using the hazards, the left bulb blinks. When pressing unlock, only the right bulb blinks. When turning headlights to the on position, the bulb of the right turning signal works, but the left does not turn on. I'm not sure if I'm being clear, enough, does that help?

The light you're talking about is the parking light, not the turn signal. If you pay attention to the right side, you'll notice that the parking light turns on with your headlights and then it gets brighter with the right turn signal. It's a dual filament bulb, so it's like 2 bulbs in one. Seems like a wiring issue.

Have you checked the wiring or tested it?

Did you use led bulbs ? sometimes they parking and turn signal are inversed, you got to mod the wiring. Happened on mine, the bulbs acted like there was no logic

Naw, they were regular bulbs. Figured it out though, a connection was loose in the actual bulb adapter.

Knew it was something with the wiring. Glad you got it figured out.
