In my experience, all the left turn signals on my car were stayin on constantly, the rear, the side maker and the bumper light. The left turn indicator on the dash cluster wouldn't shut off...it remained constantly on.
Lke an idiot I replaced the relay with a 6 light relay not an 8 light...
Muslim, its worth a shot, relays are generally easy to fix

If the turn signals work normally on one side but not on the other, the turn-signal flasher is not at fault, because the same flasher unit serves both sides of the car.

But as we said elsewhere, all indications are that the replacement bulb went in wrong, that'* all. It has offset pins on the side which ensure that it can only go into the socket one way. If it won't go in far enough to twist and lock in, pull it out, turn it 180º and try again.
