Turn signal blinking real fast...

The right turn signal is blinking 3 times faster than the left turn signal.

I've never seen anything like this?

I know someone here has had this happen to them. What's wrong?

I don't know if it's a sign of bigger problems or if it's just something that is annoying.

A bulb is burned out or is loose in one of the sockets on the right side. Turn on that signal and walk around the car to find out which bulb it is.

it just means that one of your right turn signal is bad. Gotta change the bulb.

Thanks, guys.

So this is basically the warning system to let me know that the bulb is burned out?

I was afraid that it was the beginning of a big problem but I can deal with a burned out bulb.

You guys are awesome!

^ you can say that....it's more actually along the lines of how electricity works- the resistance of the parallel series of bulbs has now changed, so now some othe bulbs blink faster

kind of like how putting in leds with the wrong resistor will make them blink fast
