What would cause the blinker to blink very fast and the left rear blinker doesn't work.

It blinks like it has a burnt out bulb, which it does not. The left rear blinker does not come on but the front blinker does. I have replaced the left rear light bulb strip and I even tested the right blinkers working strip and it still did not work. The fuses have been checked with none burned out. When it is connected to the 5th wheel, the 5th wheels left blinker works fine but the trucks blinker still does not.

You obviously have a bad connection somewhere in the taillight. Some trucks it is a common problem and the taillight circuit board is the problem.

Testimonial: "I replaced the circuit board I just called it a strip."

    You need to get a test light and see where you do, and do not have power at the rear of the truck. It could be an issue where the trailer plug meets the main harness, since you say the trailer turn and brake lights work but the truck does not.

There should two separate bulbs for marker and blinker. It sounds like a bulb is burnt out, bad ground, melted socket or a wiring anomaly. Are you certain it's supposed to have 57 series dual element bulbs for blinker and markers?

I have a 2000 DODGE DURANGO ,MYFRONT BLINKERS AND FRONT HAZARDS DONT WORK WHILE MY REAR BLINKERS BLINK FAST WHEN TURNED ON EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT AND MY REAR HAZRDS WORK FINE

Is the bulbs burned out? That causes the rear to flash fast did one go out then the other or at the same time? Sounds like bad front bulbs. If not check the connector.

Left blinker is fast front blinker light working left rear blinker light not working.

When a turn signal bulb is blinking fast, it is an indicator that a bulb is bad in the system. Replace the left rear turn signal bulb, then see if the left front blinker has gone back to normal. This is most likely your problem. Let me know if it is still a problem and i will help you fix it. Good luck

Left blinker blinks faster than the right. which the back left blinker does not work and front left blinks really fast.Right blinker works normal?

Flasher relays relies on bulb wattage for the speed of the blink.
You probably just have a blown bulb in the left rear blinker.:)

Blinker blinks fast, replaced bulb, it burned out too

Most cars have separate flashers for each side now, and in fact, if it still blinks, even though faster than normal, there's probably a short circuit somewhere on the light wire where it's exposed and making contact with the frame of your car or some other metal part, which then causes the bulb to burn out.

Fast Blinker

Usually a fast turn signal means that there is a light out. You should probably check all of your lights, including back-up lights, and turn signals. If there is one out then replacing the burnt out bulb should fix the problem.

Fast blinking flasher

that means that one of your bulbs on that side is burnt out (either front or rear) most auto parts stores will replace the bulb for you at no additional cost
