    Have a good look at the bulb holder and mountings to confirm that the electrical connections are good

    There is only one thing more pleasurable than working on a Z3, that's driving it top down on a fine day.

    If you have a test light or voltmeter, make sure the bulb socket is getting power. Also check that the bulb you used actually works (in another socket).

    Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to add value to these threads, either by pictures or by descriptions, so the next person with the same or similar problem stands on your shoulders.

    Swap it to the right side and monitor the results. My left front blinker was always crapping out until I swapped the socket to the right. I've even tried replacing the socket with no effect. Swapping worked.
