Lighting help

Last night I started up my m1009 and turned on the headlights and when I did my right turn signal light came on and my passenger side parking light and side maker are off. When I turn on my right turn signal all of the lights work correctly but when the signal turns off the parking light and the side maker turn back off. The rest of the lights work correctly including the passenger side running light. What do I need to do to correct this? Thanks!

Check the wiring inside the bulb sockets. The metal tabs are known to break off or corrode.

Also check the ground wire on the radiator support abouve both headlights.

Had the same issues when I got my CUCV. Broken and cracked metal contacts on the inside of the sockets as Warthog said.
