Front turn signals?

My rear turn signals and rear hazards work fine but neither work on the front. However, both bulbs in each front lense are illuminated. Would the blinker relay cause just the front to go out? Could there possibly be incorrect single filament bulbs in there? Any pointers or ideas?

Thanks!

If the front filaments are actually bright, then they are not burned out, but there might be a burned out one in the rear, so look closely. If no filaments are burned out anywhere, try a flasher.

So... The flasher could cause the front flashers to not work, but the rear ones would work fine?

Sometimes it does not sound logical, but I have seen several posts where the flasher fixed weird problems. <shrug>

I removed my bulbs to find them completely black with burned out inner filaments. $3.99 for 2 new bulbs and she works again!

You know, for the first time ever I found out today that my car day-time running lights! I didn't know the turn signals illuminated whenever the car was on, heh.
