1999 camry drivers side turn signal FAST

A 1999 Toyota Camry LE on the left drivers side turn signal flashes very fast.
Checked all lights and they appear to be operating correctly.
No light bulbs out.

Any ideas?

It means the bulb is close to going out. When it flashes faster than normal, it's saying "replace me."

Turn the turn signal on thats flashing rapidly. Get out of the car and smack it firmly with your palm.

Problem fixed. Been there done that.

I forgot to mention to smack the front corner light, not in the rear.

Ding ding. Also keep an eye on your bulbs. They could be ready to go out.

If none of this helps.... you COULD have a short in your wiring somewhere. In that case, time to break out the multimeter and hunt it down.
