Slow right blinker

[MY6ISQWK]

My right blinker is blinking much slower than the left one.

Any ideas on what's wrong and how to fix it?

Thanks!

Check that all the bulbs are good, sockets are clean, and grounds at all the light sockets show a low resistance to the negative battery terminal. I believe the speed of the "blink" is determined by the current draw through the blinker. If you have a bad ground, or poor connection in the socket creating high resistance, the current flowing through the circut will be different from one side to the other, therefore changing the flasher rate.

Sleeper-6,

Thanks very much for the reply.

Can you tell me which one is the blinker bulb and where exactly is it located?
Sorry if this seems like a simple question.

Thanks,
Larry

The Flasher unit is located under the dash. I have never looked for the one in my GN, but it should be in the area of the fuse panel, or in the fuse panel itsely, look for a round "can" around .75-1" in diameter. But if one side is working fine than the flasher itself is prob OK.

Ground problem, check all ground cables relating to the signal lights.
