My right turning signal sometimes doesnt work. The light in the dash stays on, but doesnt flash. When this happens the front light stays on when the signal is applied, but the back one doent work. Ive replaced the bulb, but the problem still persists. It might be a bad ground, but I dont how to fix it

Turn 4 way (hazard) lights on check to see that all lights are flashing if rear is not flashing suspect bad ground since 4way usually goes through brake light.
If everything flashes you may have a bad flasher relay find it replace it.
If light still will not flash check light socket by removing bulb & looking for burnt melted contacts or plastic. You find any of these problems consider replacing socket.
If you do not find any problems with socket use a cheap test prob connect alligator clip to metal ground near socket with bulb out turn on blinker carefully touch each contact inside socket when you find the right contact prob should light up & blink.
If you cannot get prob to blink move prob ground to new location do step 4 again.
If you still get no blink start probing wires coming into socket until prob lights working away from socket.
Ground is on the side of the socket when you look in it.
