turn signal lights - blinking too quickly

Hi

dumb question
Normally when the turn signals are blinking too fast, it means a blown bulb somewhere - right ?

However my passenger side signals are blinking double speed - but all the bulbs are ok

Any suggestions ?

by OK you mean they are flashing or they come on...just replaced mine the bulb came on but didn't flash as it has 2 elements...one for parking and one for the turn signal....in any case it caused it to flash fast

just a thought

When I drove a F body it blinked twice as fast, I replaced the relay switch and it was fine after that

I had a similar issue. Turn lights came on fine, but they blinked double speed. I took it in (2 weeks left in warranty), and they said that the turn signal inside itself (inside the steering column) was bad.... they replaced for free. Issue gone.
