If you have the stock style bulbs and not LED, check the filaments. The bulbs are dual filament, so one of the filaments can fail and you may not notice (Likely its your turn signal filament that failed). Even if it still works, it could be on its way out. Sometimes a lame filament is enough to cause issues.

Might be a burnt out bulb. My mazda did that and replacing the bulb fixed it. Don't know if the cobalt has that feature tho

i think its the fillament.

i forgot that cobalts do that exact thikng when the blinker is out.


there cheap buy new ones.


but if you really want to check you can take the one thats working, swap it for the broken one to see if working.

Bulbs are like 2 for $1.50......your bulb is bad.....replace it.

No sense wapping bulbs back and forth unless your time is worth < .50 an hour.....
