Default Turn signal doesn't work..stumped.

Got a 94 Honda Civic. When I got the car the whole headlight harness was effed up so I grabbed the volt meter and started testing wires and got everything accept the right turn signal to work. The wire is the correct wire to the power and the ground is good. The switch works because the dash turn signal blinks but is super fast. The blinker just does not light up. I have a feeling the problem is the power wire itself. Not sure where to go with this now. It is the only thing holding me back from a new sticker. Is there anyway to jerry rig the blinker into working in some way? Maybe splice it to the other blinker power wire idk? Run a new power wire from the bulb connecter to the switch? Something cheap..

If the bulb socket gets voltage and ground, then the bulb is the problem.

This sums it up. Just because a bulb "visually" looks OK doesn't mean that it is - replace the bulb.

Wasn't the bulb but it was the connector itself. Tested a different connector on the circuit and she worked. Soldered it all together and she works like a charm
