Help: Turning signal ticks too fast!

#11

Sometimes the filament burns out real close to the mount and through
vibration re-connects and the spark makes a small weld and the bulb works
for a while longer.

If you want, we can even figure out if you had your brake lights on before
the crash or after.

Burned out bulbs don't fix themselves, so it's not a burned out bulb.

Maybe a bad connection (loose bulb, corroded bulb socket, lose plug).

I just went to my car and test the bulbs. Interestingly, now the turning
signal ticks at normal speed and signal bulbs are alright.
I will keep an eye on it when it happens again. Hopefully it is just a
bulb issue.

Thanks for all helps.

A few days ago, I posted an issue of keyless entry stopped working for a
1996 I30. I still have not figured that out. At the mean
time, I noticed that left signal ticks about twice faster than it's
supposed to be. Right signal still works as before.
Apparently, something in the electrical system went wrong. Could someone
give a clue or point to right direction how to check?

Thanks.

'96 I30 has turn illumination lights (bright white light that illuminates
the turn, they are adjacent to the fog lights in the lower corners of the
front bumper) as well as the blinking lights. Maybe one of the cornering
lights is out?

Typically a fast signal indicates that one of the turn lamps needs replaced.
