turnsignal problem

my left turnsignal does not work when the headlights are on it works with them off or with just the parking lights on wut when the headlights are on it just backfeeds through and lights up the dash indicator. anybody know what to check, i checked the bulb to ck for bad filament but bulb is good. this is on my 87 firebird.
