so all reverse lights work the passenger side lights work blinker lights on rear both sides work, reverse lights work passenger blinker works, driver side light bulb brand know bottom coil does not light up. Have a solid left turn signal light on the dash board even when the blinker is not on. I had a trailer harness that was removed and the cable ends terminated i checked no corrosion on the cables. Have yet to try tilting the steering wheel will do that today.

You have a short somewhere. Check where the trailer harness hits the main harness to the rear.

Basically, pull it apart, and see what things look like. It might be patently obvious... if it isn't.. (and it probably won't be....) time to start looking elsewhere. is the problem ONLY with the front bulb?

Just left another Dodge dealer and the service advisor took it in back to the tech, came back 5 minute later with it replaced and working. No charge!
Front light module does not all have to come out as I was told per one dealer.

Thank you Tustin Dodge in Orange County, CA
