CL500 Light issue
I have a light code fault for side light - l (left). Seems simple but the left side light is ok except it is cutting off and then back on very quickly once every 6-7 secs. So it's on but briefly cutting off every 6-7 secs.
The other part of this puzzle is the light on the inside of the headlight assy is out all the time. This issue appeared the same time as the fault.
Would having that bulb out cause the other issue?

The warnings come when there has been a change in resistance in the circuit. I would start by cleaning the contacts in the sockets and on the bulbs; corrosion and crud can cause a drop in conductivity (= increase in resiatance).
If that doesn't work you might want to replace both bulbs and see if that fixes the problem.
