Turn signal won't stay lit.

The left turn signal wont stay lit when headlights are on. However, when I use the turn signals, it will blink on the left side. Are there two bulbs? or is something else the issue? please help!

fraiolim07 is right,dual filament bulb.
which means in your case,one of the 2 filaments burnt out,cheap fix.
04-06 uses a 7443 Bulb
07-08 uses an 1157A (the A meaning amber in color)
