fast blinker?

Relay? Loose connection?

Did you check the bulb connection?

WD-40 in each turn signal light socket fixed it for me.

Maybe you need to do a blinker fluid change?

WD-40 can dissolve certains types of plastic tho. You'd probably be better off using an electrical contact cleaner.

I'm a telephone man and I can tell you that to use WD-40 on a phone is to condemn it to a slow death.

LOL! Man you want to see what it does to network cables, the clear plastic plugs went jelly a short while after my son cleaned up the hub.

I do not believe it will harm any plastics I have seen in vehicles though and it is a good cleaner for plugs and sockets. I think I have seen it sprayed on most every part at one time or another....

Ah ha, for anyone who cares...

The contacts on the front socket were a little corroded... I cleaned them off using an xacto knife and all is well.

Yup, we are interested, thanks for the follow up!

You can get 'spark plug boot protector' or other types of dielectric grease to use in those places to help slow down more corrosion.

You should consider stopping at your local discount parts retailer and buying a tube of silicone "bulb grease". Squirt some on the lamp base before you put it back in and 1) you'll never have to brighten the contact with a knife again and 2) when the bulb burns out you'll be able to extract it in one piece.
