Default Turn Signal Indicator going crazy!

My right turn signal indicator clicks and blinks the right turn indicator 3 times faster than the left turn signal indicator, just started what's the problem? I also noticed the right front turn signal bulb is out, I assume these are related? Is it a real pain to change the front turn signal indicator bulb?

The fast blinking is the car telling you that a turn signal light is malfunctioning on that side. Your right front is not that hard to replace and there are "How To" threads out there.

Yep last week my right one went out and I had that fast turn singal. and this week my left one went out. I read you should replace them in pairs.

When lamps start failing, its best to check them all at the same time...the DRL's/flashers will fail a lot faster than the others too...but always look at all lamps.
