#7286, "Fast Blinking Turn Signal"




          

After having my car for about 5 months now, a couple of days ago my right rear turn signal started to blink noticably faster than the left rear with no intervantion from me, anyone know why this would happen?

Ok cool, so the bulb is out even though the turn signal flashes outside of the car?

perhaps a ground wire is not making complete contact with the back of the bulb.... "wigle" the bulb and loook at the socket to make sure the ground is tight! ;0

This doesn't always mean it's out. It comes on usually when it is close to going out I think. Also, I noticed after I changed the bulbs and got clear tail lights, then altezzas and clear bumper lenses etc. the signals always blinked a little faster than they did when I 1st got the car. I have the newfront and the bumper lenses are gone, but I have this setup in back. I have altezza tails, LED bulb on insides, clear bulb in center(ORANGE AT NIGHT), then another LED on the corners. I say change the bulbs out and see what happens.

Marc, the bulbs pop into your regular socket. They are major red! I have them in my clears. I bought them at autozone for about $7. (Mine are APC brand). They do make your flasher quicker though!
