Default Fast Clicking Turn Signal

I searched and could not find anything regarding my fast clicking right turn signal problem. Per Adrians book, I checked fuses 30-34, checked front and rear bulbs, checked the contacts and wires and cannot find why this is occurring. Any one have any thoughts here??

It's usually a burned out bulb. Check your bulb filaments very carefully again.

Even if all bulbs appear good - remove/replace each one (lots of work but if the first few are corroded and dirty - odds are good one of them's presenting a low draw of current to the flasher relay - which requires a set current draw from the builb circuit to funtion properly. If ALL bulbs and sockets check out (and I mean REALLY check them all) then it's either an open circuit in one of the wiring runs or the flasher unit itself.

But Occam says bulbs/sockets.

Occam, huh. I'm impressed.

Glad to somebody quoting something other than the gospel according to Adrian. (Not that it is a bad thing.)

I see by your Avatar that you have side mounted lights (behind the front wheel). Check that that light is flashing, likely burned out!

You have a light out...could be bulb filament, socket connector, wire/harness, etc.
Start with a visual inspection of all lights (2 people help) and go from there.

Occam (or Ockham) has a razor...
Pythagorus has a therom.
Ohm has a law.

IMHO, Pythagorus got screwed, I've never seen it wrong, I think it should be promoted to 'law' status.
