Hi ya all.
So heres my problem. A few weeks ago i noticed that my right turn signal indicator "ticks" or signals alot faster then the left turn signal. About 2 x faster. A friend pointed out that the right rear brake light and turn indicator does not work either. Day time running lights that are red works fine. Am i wasting time by replacing the bulb or is there some electrical problem issue going on here. These 2 issues must be related I think. any ideas. thanks

I'' m driving a 2007 H3 Hummer

I think the filament in the bulb for DRL is different for turn signal. So, if that filament is burned out, it will cause an indicator to blink faster than normal. Someone correct me if I''m wrong here.

Make sure to replace the bulbs and replace them with the correct ones. I believe hummer 4 life to be correct about the speed of them. Blinker speed is load dependant. less draw will blink faster.
