Correct, the bulbs are the DRL on this year.......Da.....got that part figured now the left turn signal does not work, the bulb is good has power to the socket but nothing when switch is on, so my next guess is the switch is bad or BLM. I am going to buy the switch this weekend unless I get some new ideas from you guys. Thanks!
There is power to the bulb, but the bulb does not light; so you think the most expensive thing is the problem?
Be sure to get the correct bulb 3157, the guy in the parts store will tell you "they are interchangeable"; let him buy you a new housing after it melts.
relay #68 fuse #69
One of the filaments (looks don't count, continuity and resistance do)
contacts on the bulb and socket (the corrode)
Then multi-switch.

OK, my left turn signal does not flash, I have changed the bulb, the fuse is good, I checked power to the bulb, the running light has power, when the signal switch is turned on nothing. I checked voltage when switch was on no power going to the light.
What is between the bulb and the signal switch that could cause this? Are there other connectors I could check? Past experience with GM cars the signal switch is suspect when this happens??
If I could save the the 45 bucks the switch costs I would be a happy camper!

The computer. That's why I said "I am not one who believes computers break in small ways." If they break they don't just break 1 small signal.
I would go into the switch and jump the wires to see if the switch is bad or not.

Both Filaments were good on 2 diff. bulbs.
What wires do I jump exactly?
There are no trouble lights or codes showing up after a scan? This seems like a really dumbass thing, replace the cars computer to get a turn signal to work!!! What moron would design such a system......hopefully an unemployed one!!
