NO Blinker Brake Light Issue

My left side rear blinker/ brake light is not working. The running/taillite side/filment of the bulb works, but the brake/blinker side/filament does nothing ! Just bought the truck used and it's my only issue, waiting on a owners manual, but I think each bulb is fused separate, and since half the bulb works, can I rule out the fuse and start chasing wires ??

Did you try a new bulb?

Hook a test light up to it?

Ya I tried a new bulb, does the same thing, only the taillite side works, have'nt thrown a test light on it yet, just wondering if the wiring to that bulb is separated by fuse, on my girlfriends Audi there is a separate fuse for both sides of that bulb, but I cant confirm if these trucks are wired similar as I have no manual for it yet.

I had the same issue but on the passenger side directional of my 2011. It was a broken wire above the front drivers side fender well. The ford mechanic told me he had worked on several with the same problem in the same spot. Just some food for thought.
