Default Turn Signal Problem?

This morning when turning on the right turn signal only, it blinks extremly fast. If I signal left, it's normal.
All the lamps are working... has anyone else experienced this?

Sometimes that indicates a turning light is burned out.

From the number of folks who have posted about this problem here, I'd say USUALLY indicates a burned out bulb OR A LOOSE CONNECTION.

Maybe this:


Subject: Front Park/Turn Signal Bulb Intermittently Inoperative (Check Bulb Operation and Replace Headlamp Wiring Harness, If Necessary) #05-08-42-009 - (07/01/2005)



Models: 2005-2006 Chevrolet Corvette




--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Condition
Some customers may comment that the left or right or both front park/turn signal bulbs are inoperative. This condition may be intermittent and replacing the bulb may not correct it.

Cause
This condition may be due to a loss of contact between the base of the bulb and the socket.

Correction
Important: Some early versions of the headlamp wiring harness have a section of harness that is not needed for this bulletin. Prior to installing harness to headlamp, disconnect and discard this section.

Check the bulb for correct operation off the vehicle by using a 12-volt power source. If the bulb is found to be inoperative, replace the bulb with a 5702 KA Phillips bulb, P/N 15233607. If the bulb is found to operate out of the socket, then the headlamp wiring harness should be replaced. Remove the headlamp assembly for access to the wiring harness (refer to the Front Headlamp Replacement in SI, Document ID #1507485).

Thanks everyone.
