The right front signal won't work, right rear works. bulb is good, ground is good, wiring from socket to fuse box is good. Tried a new multi switch, no difference.

Hi,

Have you checked if the light blue wire with a white tracer is getting power with the left signal on? If it does, check the black wire at the light socket for continuity to ground.

If you aren't getting power to the lt blue/white wire, we need to check for power at the body control module (BCM). The BCM is what supplies power to that bulb. See pic below.

Check that and let me know the results.

Here is a link you may find helpful:

If there is no power, locate the BCM under the dash at the center. See pic 2. Check the lt blue/white wire for power at pin 4 in the BCM. If there is no power being provided by the BCM, chances are it needs to be replaced.

Let me know what you find.
