Default 1999 XJ 2.5TD indicator lamp not working

Hi all!

I turn to this community once again for some help and guidance. A while ago, the rear left indicator lamp stopped working on my XJ. I was getting the typical fast flashing sound. I thought it was the bulb but when I took it out, it looked ok. I then went ahead and tried it in the rear right indicator socket and the bulb is working fine. I then tried the bulb from the rear right indicator socket and it was not working either on the left hand side.

With a voltmeter, I checked the voltages and observed that the voltage on the left side was much lower than on the right side. I am suspecting this to be the flasher relay but found it odd that it would fail on just a single indicator lamp.

Before I bite the bullet and get another flasher relay, is there anything else that could be causing this? Some fuse, somewhere perhaps? It just started out of the blue.

many thanks in advance!
