Blinker flashing too fast

The guy who I got my 85 gs from hacked up some of the wiring and also put in all cheap led lights. I replace all bulbs with traditional and now the right blinker flashes much faster than the left. The car never had any of the needed changes to make the LEDs work properly. Thoughts on why it would flash like this? Thanks

I saw this the other day, but I got rid of the led junk to return it to stock. I think the led messed with the relay, but trying to rule out all other issues before spending more money on a new relay.

Well after 2 days, it disappeared on its own, love when the car fixes itself.

Search for LED bulb MOD within the RX7Club... I did the mod and swapped ever bulb in my FD to LEDs ... not that hard to do also if you know how to solder pretty good.
