signal question...
on my '00 RS coupe, my right turn signal will sometimes (more often than not) blink faster than usual and make a louder blinking noise than usual. At other times it won't do it at all. The left turn signal never has this problem. Anyone else ever have this issue, and how would I go about fixing?
Thanks, Josh

The fast turn signal is an early warning that you have a faulty bulb, blown bulb or loose connection on the bulb. Basically, if the system senses that there's no continuity on a bulb it will flash that side faster.

Check the ground on the front bulb/socket. Often gets corroded. Clean it off and use some silicone grease.

I was trying to bring some light onto the situation. That has happened to me when i was switching my rear lights with the red/whites and forgot to plug them back in! Check connections, replace bulb, check fuse. See you in a this weekend if not next. Hope everything is going well, hopefully you'll be sportin some Solomon equipement this winter, freebee's are welcome my way!

Being a Massachusetts driver, how exactly did you figure out that the turn signals were broken? Did you lend the car to an out-of-stater?
