Turn signal problem

Turn Signal

I'm not sure if I;m in the right place to ask the question, but I'll ask anyway. Has anyone had a fast turning signal when they hit the turn signal. Mine has been doing that on the right turn, so I opened and took the bulbs out to see if maybe they were going or need replacement, but they are fine, does anyone have any suggestions as to what it can be??

Thanks

When that happened to me I found that I had two bad turn signal bulbs. This was when I picked up the C5Z. Come to find out that both front turn signal bulbs were busted.
 
Rapid flashing is a sign of increased amperage draw, this happens alot when trailer lights are hooked up (increased draw) . If it's both left and right as stated try the flasher. If it's only one side try the bulbs on that side both front and rear to be certain.
 
:hehehe: Was checking a Hot Rod forum and they thought it could be low blinker fluid. The blinker fluid dip stick is located to the left of the radiator cap jack by the giggler spring. Don't over fill it unless you have a key for the vapor lock.

Did you check the side marker light on the rt rear quarter panel? Not sure if it would have anything to do with your problem but maybe any bulbs being out on the rt side might cause it.:shrug01: Have you done any mods to the lighting system? Euro tail lights, etc?

True, going to LED lights will cause this too.

My Auto Zone had a special on it last week. I got a 55 gallon drum of it. :hehehe:
 
so would i find that in the performance isle at pepboys next to the neon lights and fart can exhaust or if i could get the 16 year old kid behind the counter to hang up his cell phone i could ask him
 
You will find blinker fluid next to the Big Foot gas petal on the same isle as the Hub Caps that spin. :lmao:
And quit picking on the kid on the cell phone, he has a rice rocket, ya know :hehehe:
