Default quick flash blinker problem!

Anytime I use my left blinker it flashes at a higher rate than normal. Usually it means on of my lights are out but when I check both of the signals where lighting up. Is there anything eles that might cause this problems. This is on a bone stock 94 Civic Dx. Also I notice that the right horn button on the steering wheel does not work.

How do I fix both problems?

check right behind your washer fluid light. there is a little clear box with 6 black wires going to it. see if any of the wires came loose cause that is a ground box. the box should be bolted up. if its not then a wire must be fried

that and the harness going to the flasher bulb. btw that "clear" box is the chassis ground for all the lighting around that area. I'm betting that is the problem.

I had a problem like that a few weeks ago to my car. the culprit was the chassis ground box not properly mounted down.

On my car the right turn signal is faster than the left. How do I fix it so that both signals are fast?

I bet one bulb is dead or disconnected. The relay amperage is then forced to the remaining bulb(s) on the circuit which makes it blink twice as fast... I hope that made sense...

yeah my left blinker is fast causing the front corner light not to work. the bulb works but i've found hondas are VERY picky with the wiring. it's prolly just a loose wire

The horn problem might be your primary horn rotor as well. You should probably call Mr. Wankel who is from Thailand. He is in the yellow pages.
