ok...when i signal left it blinks faster than usual....looks like a bulb is broken or something..but..i checked all the flashing bulbs and nothing seems out of place....the right flasher works like normal...same if i put the hazards on.....im stomped do left and right flashers work off of individual flasher relays?...or are they on the same circuit

One of the bulbs has to be bad. As far as I know, they work off the same relay. Although, your switch may be going bad. Have you tested it?

torean

the only test i've performed so far is...press down...flash flash flash....go out...everything flashes fine....front(right under neath the FTP lens) and the rear works also....then press up for right signal...flash.......flash.....flash......same blubs work at the annoying side....go back in....put hazard on...both flash at the same speed

krazykoncepts

you have a bad ground on the side that flashes fast

Icemark

how about the hazard switch... does it also work the same???

Any fast flashing indicates a change in the resistance of the circuit. So if even if the dash indicator (on the side not working) is bad, it will flash fast.

If all the bulbs really are fine and working, then pull the bulbs out and clean the corrosion off the contacts in the bulb sockets

torean

that might be the case....i did forget the starter ground when i was putting stuff back together after the rebuild....


hmm...when the hazards are on they blink at the normal pace...its only when i signal left that i get the annoying quick flashes...the dash indicator also flashes irregularly but it does work.......i'll try the starter ground first since that's giving me other problems as well.....if that doesnt help i'll check the bulbs and report back

whoa. that's crazy. i have the same problem! my left blinker wasn't working and it turns out if was a post that had come unsoldered on my flasher box in my kick panel. now my emergency flashers both work and flash at regular speed, and so does my right blinker, but my left blinker blinks fast. the lights still blink on left blinker, just fast, so i can't figure it out either. let me know if you find out what the problem is!

The hazard switch working correctly rules out the CPU output circuits, so it does sound like bad bulb sockets.

I seriously doubt that the starter ground will have any change/help what so ever for this problem. If it was a ground issue, it would happen on both sides, not just one.

This happened to me too, but with the right blinker. Same exact problem. It eventually "fixed" itself. Dont know how or why.
