Side repeater wiring.. not working!

Hi guys-
The passenger side turn signal repeater stopped working... the main signals (front and back) and the side repeater on the driver's side all work fine. I changed the bulb but no dice. The connections at the bulb end look fine for a 20 year old car. (88 NA). Any ideas on where the wiring goes, how it's routed, and where it ends up? I'm assuming something broke or rubbed through somehow. Since the rest of the signal circuit works I'm not even bothering with fuses, unless you tell me the side markers have their own fuse (LOL, not!).

Any ideas or help?
Thanks
Justin

I've seen a bad relay do some wierd things sometimes. I would think if it is turning on then it couldn't be a wiring problem, Either it would turn on or it wouldn't. If you have a spare relay, it might not hurt to try it. Just a thought.

The side marker has a Gray/Red wire which should measure 12 vdc with the lights on. The second wire is a brown wire which is connected to a ground stud behind the head light assembly on the engine side of the fender well. Take the nut off this stud and clean all of the terminals connected and the ground stud and tighten. The front and side light wire (both are Gray/Red are tided together on the bottom of the fuse/relay panel at connection N32.
The schematics can be found here:
