Can't find the bulb that won't blink... maybe put a bulb in it? Dash light blinking? Hearing the relay clicking?

sounds like you rapping lol. Let me find out your ghost writing the whip!!! Just playing bro. But back to the rx, yea the dash light blicks but blicks only for the rear taillight and it actually blinks faster than the passenger side. How do you get the bulb out though? Cause when I unscrewed the blinker light, in the back of it was just wires no bulb.. Do you have a diagram of how to take it out with ripping the wires? Thanks bro

Faster blinking usually means blown bulb or wrong bulb. Sounds like no bulb in your case. It should be just two screws holding the housing on and then boom socket for bulb with wires in it. I think youre over thinking it.

Make sure the bulb socket is clean and not gunked up or corroded.
