Default Fast blinkers

I have a problem with the blinkers. The left blinker blinks twice as fast as the right. How do I solve this problem. I want both of the blinkers to blink fast. Thank You.

it means the bulb is dieing or dead, why would you wan't them to blink fast? if you want them to blink fast get some amber led's (they fit into the stock plug) at autozone and replace the back turn signals with them and they will blink fast.

this means that a bulb blew on one of the blinkers!

IMO, I find fast blinkers a little obnoxiously distracting, but hey, whatever floats your boat.

In the spirit of "whatever floats your boat," I did a little searching and found you a DIY on how to get all of your blinkers to flash faster, without losing bulbs. It is noted that this may not be for beginners, but it doesn't look that hard.

Here you go.

The problem with them blinking too fast is that at a glance sometimes oncoming traffic will think it's a parking light.

There's a GOOD reason they blink slowly.

you could make them both blink fast, and still work, you'd probably spend 5 hours wiring it all up for some pointless homo-mod.

You mean we like our cars to make sense and function accordingly? Then Yes, that's how it is.
