Default Electrical Issue with Turn Signal

Hey Guys,
So I have an issue on my LHD EG that has an S2000 AP1 cluster installed in it.

Everything has been working fine for ages now after the swap, until recently my passenger side turn signal (green/blue wire) stopped working. My other sides turn signal (green/yellow) works just fine, in fact that whole sides cluster works fine and the boot lid clusters on both sides work fine as well.

- Started by swapping out the bulb -> no love
- Swapped the housing/cluster with the other sides and it still didnt work (so its not the cluster)
Got my handy voltmeter out and switched on the turn signal then...
- unplugged the cluster and checked for voltage at green/blue, gets a constant 0.3v
- unplugged the main wire harness that feeds the entire rear of the car and measured the green/blue, still has a constant 0.3 (by the way, measure green/yellow here gives me an alternating voltage of about 5v on and off when turn signal for this side is on)
- went all the way to my ap1 cluster and measured there, still same story, 0.3v for green/blue (and if i turn the other turn signal on and measure green/yellow, alternating 5v on and off which is what green/blue is supposed to be doing when i measure it).

Where do I go from here? What could be causing this?

I did forget to mention, the brake light also doesnt work. I tried swapping the cluster/housing with the other side - but that didnt work either - so its not the housing thats faulty.

Thanks for the help guys... NAAAT.

For future visitor reference: I figured it out, both my molex connectors at the light cluster/housing and the main one by the rear door that feeds the back were screwed. Jumped the molex connector for the turn signal wire at both locations and its now working.
