Default 90 XJ blinker issue....

I am going through my XJ before I start the big modifications. I noticed that the blinkers aren't working b/c the front left running/blinker appeared to be out. So I simply replaced it. That didn't fix it. All of the other lights are working fine... just no blinkers due that one light. I HATE wireing and all affiliated subjects... especially when it's not dealing with an upgrade. Let me know if you have any ideas? Hopefully its somethin stupid easy...

Go to autozone and get the jeep specific fluid...!LOL!! Mine did the same thing, everything worked but the marker, the turn signal worked, flasher worked but marker didn't. Replaced. Everything, light fuse, flasher and finally replaced the whole bezel unit and found a crappy ground. All better know...
