The other day I changed a burnt fuse in my car and then everything was fine (lights that were not working came back on etc.). Then about 4-5 hours later in the day, I turned on my left signal while making a turn off an exit ramp......everything is normal the blinker goes click.......click......click......then changing lanes into the right I turn my right one on and I hear CLICK..CLICK..CLICK..CLICK atleast twice as fast if not more than the left blinker. The thing is the right blinker is faster, a little louder, and in actually blinks faster in real life when viewing the bulbs.....Does anyone know why this may be happening or has it happened to anyone before?

if theres a dead bulb it will blink faster, also if you have an led bulb in any of the sockets, it causes it to blink faster. other then that i dont know any other reason why they would go faster...

Anyone else have any reasons here?

I have LEDs on both sidemarkers. Would that not mean that both should be blinking faster (I wouldnt mine, because that will be the looks "Balanced" If you know what I mean)

Thank youuuuuu now I know its not my LEDS, not my right turn signal (in the display like where the gauges are) is dimly lit and when I put on the right turn signal it lights as bright as normal and is not flashing normal again.

i pulled both of my corners out and put tape around the whole inner unit that houses the bulb because the clips are broken that hold it in, and when i went to turn left, it was blinking 2x faster than the right one. im hoping to god its not my trunk wiring loom.
