All signals operational
Check the turn signal bulbs to be be sure they're the same number. If they aren't the right bulbs, their resistance might be different and cause one to flash faster than the other. If you have a trailer light plug on your car, check it to be sure the turn signal wire isn't shorting out inside the plug. This will also cause one turn signal to flash faster than the other.
Look at the signal markers (front and back) and see if the light is out. replace the one thats not flashing, make sure the contacs are rust free and clean them also add some type or grease or vaseline
I suggest you compare the watt of the right side flicker to those of the left. any difference will show the flashing of said bulbs. low ampage flash faster than high ampage.

If the right blinker is blinking faster, your car *thinks* that one of the bulbs is out whether it is or not. It may be that the light-emitting filament in one of your bulbs is good but the alternate filament that keeps the circuit complete even when the light-emitter burns out may (ironically) have failed. I would try replacing your right side signal bulbs whether they both appear to be working or not. Hope this is helpful!
If all of the lamps flash on the side that is flashing faster. Find the thing under the dash that is clicking and change it.

Usually one of the globes is blown if not I would try WD40 or similar product and take the globes out and squirt the connections where they contact it might be slightly dirty or moisture in and around the globes electrickery likes to be clean. cya Neil
One light must be out, maybe a dash light or small marker light. Check all lights for loose connection.

Hello. The symptoms you are describing are likely due to a poor ground. Temporarily install a new ground wire by securing a piece of copper wire to the frame with a self tapping screw. Use this ground wire along with the hot wire to see if each of these lights works. If it does, trace the ground wire back to the frame, unscrew it and clean up the metal with emery cloth so you reestablish a good ground.

I have always had that problem and opted to not fix it. It is annoying, but not a major issue. The turn signals work just fine it just depends upon how hard I take my turn...so I slow down a bit more now and honeslty havent had it happen in a while :)

The 2 filament on the LH Front turn signal is most likely burned out, ...........or the ground to it, & the entire socket needs replaced. Caution lights, send signals to ALL FRONT & REAR lights. All turn signal lights must be in working order, as it is a "pulsating" currect surge sent to the bulbs, LH or RH, depending which direction you wisk to turn. If 1 filament is broken, the circuit is incomplete, & no flash will occur. Usually you will get one light that stays on, & the front or rear missing lighting, is the one whichis the culpret.
