Turn signal flashes fast but bulbs good

Turn signals on truck worked fine, there was a bad wire for rt turn signal on trailer, no juice at connector prong. I spliced into the right turn signal wire for truck and wired to rt turn signal wire on trailer connector. rt turn sign prong on trailer works now but left turn sign on truck doesn't work now. It blinks fast like a bad bulb but bulb is OK, fuse OK, any suggestions, Thanks

Problem solved, Since 3 of the 4 turn signals worked I did not fuse was a problem
but after checking the turn swithch, I pulleded out the fuse which looked ok, but when
I put it back in all the turn signal lights woked! Apparently just one part of the surface
of the fuse was corroded.

SOURCE: LEFT TRAILER TURN SIGNAL DOES NOT WORK

I'd get a 12vdc test light if you don't have one already & start from plug, and keep probing back from there. It may be as simple as a bad connection under truck where joined into harness.

SOURCE: LEFT TRAILER TURN SIGNAL DOES NOT WORK

I have seen once before that the fuse box was bad on a 2003 Dodge 3500. I had power in and nothing out. We had to replace the box. Not cheap! Hope it is simple like a loose connection though. I think I had to pull the inner fender on the drivers side to access the bottom of the fuse box. Pain in the ****, but...

Is my 2004 GMC Canyon turn signal flasher a replaceable part?

hello,
yes it is replaceable, it should be under the dash lower panel, but the fast blinking sounds like a bulb is not working or a bad connection, if you replace the flasher the you may want to make sure that you have the electronic version as they are more reliable. and the other thing is to make sure that you have a good ground in your wiring and that all the connections are dry, tight, and installed properly by color code

Turn Signal very slow

James ,look for crosion in wires or plug on trailer, and broken wires and yes flasher is replaceable ,they do tend to burn out ,replace with original (OEM) some aftermarket ones (mechanical) type can cause there own problems.

Intermittant light/turn signal problem

Look for a loose ground wire to the lights themselves. Also the bulb can be bad but you can't see it. The light will seek a ground if it doesn't have a good one. It will "feedback" through the wiring and make the lights act really weird.
