check the wires going into the bulb socket i find a lot of times those wires get jared loose. Start by jiggling the wires with the signals on if you see they start working get a new socket and wire it up

That one bulb has both filaments in it. There's 2 contact bumps on the base of the bulb, sometimes they get mashed together. Or maybe someone forced the bulb into the socket backwards.

Sounds to me as if your switch has went out. My car did this and also my wipers would stay on full blast. I had to replace both switchs on the sterring column. (The switch that contains the arms that stick out) Cost me about 160.
