Swapped clusters, lost my turn signal!Help me out

I swapped clusters and did an led conversion last night.

At first my temperature gauge and fuel gauge didnt work. As i drove around they all of a sudden started working. So that was weird.

Then i noticed only my driver side turn signal was working.
The driver side lit up on the dash + outside and i heard the clicking as normal.

However my passenger side did not light up in dash or outside and instead all i heard was very slow ticking.

Only the driverside lights up with emergency lights on.

So now i need help narrowing this down.

Could it be the bulb in the turn signal dash slot? I did not replace that bulb with an led, and im not sure if the cluster i bought second hand was working with one.

Would the flasher go out just like that? Where is it located exactly?

I really dont want to mess with the turn signal switch but how can i diagnose it?

Thanks for reading, help appreciated.
