Probably a dumb question...
Ok, '87 sporty, My turn signals worked fine until recently, and now all of a sudden they flash very very fast. All the bulbs work, would a new flasher solve this? I'm still up in the air whether it's the flasher, or a bad ground somewhere. Hoping someone has had a similar issue.
did you check the fluid in your signals, prolly need to go with a higher viscosity fluid. make sure you bleed them first. :P sorry couldn't resist.
could be a ground. did you put the contact grease (or whatever it's called) on before installing the bulbs?

I gotta ask what's the story on the turn signal fluid? Clearly there's no fluid in there but, I've seen it mentioned in a few posts.

lol, blinker fluid is an old joke running around parts stores for quite awhile. Just naming off things that don't exist. Muffler bearings, vw water pumps, summer/winter air, stuff like that.
Oh and yeah, the bulbs have grease on them.

no fuses, just circuit breakers, and they seem fine. the blinkers work, just flash very fast all of a sudden. It's not a huge deal, I kind of like them flashing fast, but I'm pretty sure if it's the signal relay, it's going to go bad on a road trip somewhere.
