Turn signal...

ok, this just started the other day...put on my right turn signal, and it starts blinking really fast. I figure, no prob, just the bulb needs to be replaced, so i replaced it, but still nothing. Its my understanding that it cant be the relay because then the front wouldn't blink also correct? I do have a problem with moisture in that lens, could that be the cause of the issue?

Thanks.

your front is fine, its a rear problem. They always blink fast when one is burnt out. Since you've replaced it, check to make sure you are getting power to the socket with either a tester or a voltmeter. if you are try another new bulb, if not you have a broken wire. with a bad fuse the front, or posibly all, woulnd't be working either, so thats not it/

OMG I should have known to do that! It's always the simple things that I forget about! What company is the best supplier of it?
