Parking light/turn signal weirdness...'95 B3000

Hey -

I have a strange issue occurring, and after doing fuse/relay checks and searching the forum with no obvious results, I turn to you.

This is concerning the driver's side turn signal/parking light located on the front bumper. It will not illuminate as a parking light, but it works fine as a turn signal or with the hazards.



At first, I thought maybe it was a bad wire, but how could it be when the turn signals and hazards work fine? It's only one bulb.

Thoughts? Any help or guidance is appreciated.

the lights are operating as designed...the bumper ones are signals only and the corner ones only come on with the running lights

Great. I can check the corners off the list...I wasn't really sure if they were supposed to or not, because I've had this truck since the summer and am just getting ready to put it on the road within a week or two, so I'm not too familiar with what's what. Thanks.
