Subject:Re: Turn signals Blinking Too fast?--bad connection probably
From:Weibel, Pius

My right front turn signal flashes twice as fast as all of the others
and is about the same brightness.  I know that the middle spade
connection on that turn signal is corroded and partially broken (I think
that this is ground connection).  My assumption is that this is a poor
connection and is responsible for the faster blinking.  Prior to the
breakage, it flashed at a normal rate.  [I wish I could say that I have
replaced the spade connector and the blinker flashes normally again but
this is on my list of things to do.]

It wouldn't hurt to check the bulb types.  Mistakes can be made.

That said, I once had the fast flashing on one side problem and, in my
case, it was a bad connection due to corrosion.
