    Make sure that the bulbs are getting a good connection in the socket

    try changing the bulb.... if the bulb is malfunctioning, weak, or not putting out the right amount of volts your turn signal will blink fast. its your cars way of telling you that your bulb is out.

    BTW... you're not using LED bulbs are you, becuase that will also result in the problem stated above. (lower voltage)

    Need some paint or bodywork done in Chicagoland or NW Indiana???.. http://www.alsautobodyexperts.com/

    no im using a new bulb...well to tell you the truth, the socket im using is from the USDM that fit on the JDM...before i took it out i had a 2057 clear bulb...all i did since the turn signal lens are clear on the 3rd gen is get a 2057A...now its amber...but ill try both get a new bulb and check where i spliced it.
