Left blinker faster than right
I picked up a 2010 Scab last week, and driving it around more than just a few mile test drive, I noticed my left blinker was faster than my right. Thinking I had one out I stopped to check, nope... both front and back lights bllink. one is just faster about twice as fast... what gives?

Open the lights on the side that is faster. It sounds like someone maybe have put an LED bulb on that side. The LED doesn't provide as much resistance on the circuit and the circuit is doing a fast blink to let you know a bulb is out. You can replace the bulb with the standard bulb that came with the truck or add a resistor if you wish to keep the LED.

Aren't there a total of four separate bulbs that blink per side? Two front, two back? Maybe one of them is out... You'll still see blinking when you look at a glance, but one of the bulbs may still be burned out...

I bet the left rear upper bulb is not working. Last week i changed the same bulb on 3 different trucks.2010-2011.I found this to be really odd and for no known reason
