That turns out to be the key to fixing this. My left side lights were
wired wrong. When all the bulbs are working, on the left side the white one
blinks and the yellow is steady; on the right side the yellow one blinks
and the white is steady.

So when the blinking bulb burnt out in the white lamp, all I saw was that
the yellow one stayed on. It is wired to be the running light.
