Did a little searching and replacing the bulb seemed to work.

The turn signal bulb is dual filament (for parking lights, and signal).

Supposedly your parking light filament took a dump.

Same issue here last year. But Azine helped me out and I fixed it on my own quickly.

This happened to me. Replacing the bulb fixed it - one filament was broken, the other wasn't.

Although, at first, when I put the new bulb in, I still had the same problem. I pulled the bulb back out of the connector, turned it around and made sure it was seated in the connector really well and it started working.
