Exclamation Right tail light our after being bumped

A week and a half ago, a girl in a little red Chevy backed into my XJ. All it did was crack my tail light so I told her not to worry and I found a new set here on the forum. However, my turn signal no longer works. I assumed the bulb had been rattled and broke. When I took it all apart, everything looks perfectly normal. All other bulbs work fine. I've swapped the reverse and turn bulbs and it definitely is something in the turn signal wiring somewhere.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Start checking wiring, starting with The wires behind the taillight box. Check for spots where the wire has been rubbed clean, spots where it looks like it may have broken under the skin. Good luck
Edit, my tailights and fron markers got screwed by some bad wires in the hatch...
