    All was well until the offside front bulb blew, easy enough fix, just replace the bulb... or so I thought.

    I know the bulb is fine because I checked it in the nearside bulb holder for good measure.
    When I put it in the offside fitting the fine filament lights up when I turn the sidelights on, as it should but the thicker filament doesn't blink when I turn the stalk to a right turn, it doesn't even light up however the dash indicator is working perfectly.

    Does the dash indicator blink, or does it stay lit?

    I would look more carefully at the socket then. Corrosion or bad wire(s), or bad ground.

    Yes, cheers Larry' it's just weird how it was working fine until the bulb blew, now nothing. I have noticed that the dash indicator on the right blinks ever so slightly slower than the left.
