Default Signal light issue - Can any one help?

I have a 2002 A6. Both my right and left turn signals work when I use the turn signals.
The issue is that when I put on the hazard lights or use my remote to lock or unlock my doors only the passenger side lights/signals work. I looked at the fuses and checked to wiring to the bulbs and all is fine. Has anyone had this issue before? Is there a way to fix this issue?
Thanks

What about when you have the parking lamps on only. Do they iluminate?
I believe the turn signal bulbs have two filaments inside them. One may break while the other is fine so as a result, one function will work i.e. turn signal while the other function (parking lamp) may not work.

They do work with just the parking lamps on. You think I should just change the bulbs anyway?

Couldn't hurt. After you pull the driver's side out take a look inside the bulb and see if one of the two filaments is broken.

It was the hazard relay. I ordered one online $60 (instead of $95 at the dealer) Popped it in and all is well. Thanks for all the help!

Did you get your turn signal lights to work?? I have a similar problem with my TT except it does not work when I just have the lights turned on. It blinks with the hazard on and signal on but on parking light mode it does not (only one side is on). Did yours work when you replaced it?

You think you can help me on this one? One side of my parking lights DO NOT work however it blinks on hazard mode and turn signal. By the way is that Heidi Klum?? Now that a set of head lights if I have ever seen one ... nice!
