Default LED Running lights/blinker

I recently attempted to replace my from running lights/turn signal with an LED bulb. But when I did so the light will not work when the lights are on, but will when the turn signal is activated.

Also, if the lights are on and the bulb in in there they will light up, but the blinker will not work.

Am I missing something?

the reg bulb has two filaments, one for turn signal operation and the second for running lights, an led bulb can only do one function not both, either its on or its off, thats the basic way to explain it
