Default rear turn signal not working

today i get some indicator light which i guess was telling me one of my lights were not working.

so i took out the rear tail lamps to replace the bulb and notice its not even burnt out. but i changed it out for a new one anyway. still doesnt work.

could it be a burnt out fuse? i havent looked at the fuse box yet. but jus want to get some answers before i look at it again tomarrow

I had a similar occurrence last week. The indicator light came on my dash and the rear left turn signal wasn't working. Stopped by Autozone on the way home and bought a new bulb. After leaving the store, the indicator light went out and the turn signal has worked fine every since.

well i was a lil confused cuz if i turn on my lights, it will go on. it just would not get brighter if i stepped on the brake or wont blink if i put the signal. so i looked closely at the bulb and the bottom springy part in the bulb thats used for braking and stopping was a little busted.
