Check your LED Tail lights
Mine were acting up recently, hyper-flash coming about erratically.
Since no bulbs were out, I started opening up the left side, which it seems where the problem was originating (noted by the left turn signal reaction). The aftermarket lenses have no locking device for the bulb/connector socket, so after a time, the weight of the wire harness pulls the socket open and off the lens, and exposing the internal parts to the elements. This leads to the corrosion of the connector wires.
After cleaning the problem wires, I used electrical tape to firmly fix and seal the sockets to the back of the lenses. Seems good now!
