Blinker problem

While left blinker is on,step outside the car and see if front and rear lights are "blinking ".Chances are that one of the bulbs is burned out,[Probably the one filament in the rear bulb ]

Did you change out any bulbs just before you noticed this faster flashing?

Had this in 2 98 Camry's. Intermittent...depended on temp. Even if the bulb is working, replace it. It's a dual filament bulb and one of them is klunky. Worked for me.
