Default Crazy blinker.

I know that when a blinker is going to blow out or has blown out it blinks really fast to notify you of that. My blinker has been doing that sometimes but other times it blinks like normal, I highly doubt that it is about to go out because the bulb was put in just back in December. Any ideas on what it is guys?

I think one of the bulbs is malfunctioning which causes the it to blink faster.

Did you replace the bulb with OEM or LED?

most all vehicles do this when a bulb is malfunctioning, since they are wired in parallel. If its intermittent it could be a bad connection. Try reseating the blinker bulbs.
