When one of my rear bulbs burnt out it caused the front bulb to blink at a faster rate. That's how I knew I had an issue, the indicator light on the dash was flashing fast. Did that happen in your case?

That is exactly what happened. I was wondering why the signals were blinking so fast. And...I have had a few issues with these signals over the years so I assume the worst. Broken wire, now power...who knows. But these signals are coming off as soon as my new Cycle Visions kit comes in the door. A 1 piece unit with signals, brake light etc, all integrated. And all LED.

my work truck just went over 150,000 and since hitting that point I've had 3 issues come up. It seems as if they have pre-programed ahh ***** in the ecm's.
