Default Bumper indicstors

Today my front ds bumper indicator stopped working, car is a v5 uk2000. Usual indicator on dash flashing fast so I got a replacement bulb but still nothing. I swapped the plug and connector from ps over and it won't work in ds either.

The indicator on the wing is working fine. Any ideas? Mot on Monday and I really don't wanna fail on an indicator

If the relay starts flashing fast, it's a fair bet a bulb is out.

Try the wiring behind, look for damp/corrosion in the connector, and the bulb holder..

Also use a multimeter to test the bulb holder

Look at the wiring behind...there's a connector that could have damp in it.
