Question Turn signal doesn't work

Quick question for you all:

My front left turn signal does not flash when I press the button. When I turn the bike on, the bulb lights up and stays lit throughout the duration of my ride. When I press the turn signal button it doesn't do anything to the front signal, however, the rear turn signal works as it should. I'm stumped.

Thoughts?

Did you try replacing the bulb?
The front bulb has 2 filaments, one for the running light and the other for the turn signal.

I did not know there were 2 filaments. That would probably solve the problem. Thanks!
