Passenger side running lights/blinker problems

Start my 89 firebird up after college and suddenly I have blinker problems.. Also my passenger side fog light is out, just went out as well, not sure if that's a coincidence or what.. But the passenger side running lights (front, side) are not turning on like normal. The green arrow in the dash points to passenger side at all times EXCEPT when I turn on my right (passenger) turn signal. The bulbs (for the yellow lights at least) are all good, have not checked fog light yet. Fuses appear to all be good. Also should be noted that when I signal for right hand turn (passenger) blinker and running lights turn on and remain solid. They appear to be normal brightness in contrast to driver's side running lights. It's late and cold and I have class in 9 hours. Any advice guys?

Re: Passenger side running lights/blinker problems

Went out and tinkered with it. Wires leading to the flasher (right behind the flasher basically) seem somewhat bad, needed readjusting/moving around.. Probably bad wiring but it works for now. Try moving it around with your hazards on and see if it works. May this serve future people searching for this problem.
