Default another flasher problem

so i tried looking on the other threads and i couldnt find anybody else with the same situation.

my problem is that my front left turn signal doesnt work and the rear blinks twice as fast the weird thing is that if i go on an hour long drive it will sometimes fix itself but only temporarily and then go back to the same problem.

i have already replaced the blinker bulb, and the hazard flasher button relay and the same thing is going on

any ideas? is there anysort of secondary flasher that might not be working?

What about a fuse? I'm not sure, but it is an idea.

or u could have an open in the wire sumwhere between the flasher and the bulb...check for resistance from the flasher to the bulb. if it there is resistance (.02 doesnt count) then u know there is a break

i also have an 01 ls and i had the same problem a few months back. it ended up being the light socket. i just pulled my headlight assembly out and took the flasher bulb out and used a small screwdriver to bend the contacts slightly out. dont bend them too much though because they might break off im not sure. its worth a try only taked about 5 minutes. let me know what you find out.
