Hello,

Do both front and back turn signal does not work on the right side?
Or is it just the front or the back?

If you have just one of the light (front or back) is not working then it is likely a bulb. Take out the light and inspect and replace if it is burnt. It can also be due to a melted socket.

If both front and back on that side is not working and had stopped working at the same time then it is likely the turn signal switch.
You could have brunt pin on the part of the switch, that could be only one side is functional.

In order to replace the turn signal switch, also know as the multi function switch, you will have to remove the steering wheel. Which will require you to remove the airbag from the steering wheel.

I have attached diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
