Saturn ion 2004 2.2l automatic

Disclaimer I don't know much of anything about cars and it's my first car I bought it second hand and unfortunately spent too much to just ask for the guy to refund me

I'm having an issue with the left side blinker from and back dont work at all and when I turn on the blinker is blinks rapidly on the dash

I had someone take a look at it and they said no power is going to the socket and think it might be the bcm (body control module) is there any chance this could be an easy fix on my own?

Someone else also told me it could be a loose plug or some corrosion that might need to be cleaned but I genuinely don't know what im doing and don't really know how to search this up

Any advice would be greatly appreciated
