Turn signal problem

Hey All

On my 99SI, the right turn signal blinks really really fast on the interior dashboard and on the outside headlight/tailight. I though it was the turn signal flasher, which I replaced, but it is still doing the same thing. Any other solutions?

switch your left side bulds with your right side bulds... see what happens. If the problem starts to happen on the other side then replace the bulbs

I'll try the fuses and switching the bulbs..... Although I can't see how that would make the turn signal flash quicker.

I switched my fuses around and I'm still getting the same problem... Any other ideas?
On a side note, my emergency lights allow it to flash at the same speed.

usally when your turn signals are blinking fast, if youve done no eletrical mod, its a burnt out bulb some where, the eletricy is passing faster(in theory) check everything

Okay just checked and replaced the bulb that was burnt and it works perfect now. Feel like such an idiot buying a flasher relay, lol... At least I can return it. Thanks guys .

yeah man, the only resason i said check the fuses is because if you had the wrong fuse amp, a low amp would cause your turns to flash quicker
