My turn signals starting flicking FAST?
I cleared out my headlights last week and replaced my turn signal bulb with a titanium APC bulb. Everything was working fine, until the other day. All of the sudden my turn signals start going really fast. I know that usually means that a bulb is out, but i checked them all. The only thing i did notice is that the filiments on the new bulbs, the one that are used to light brighter when the turn signal is on, are not lighting as bright as when i first installed them. Any suggestions? This fast ass turn signal is very annoying and i hardly have turn signals from the front now.

could be:
water
wrong bulbs
probably the wrong bulbs... check into it... possibly just a damaged bulb so buy a new set and see what happens!

fast blinkers
You have a dead bulb either on the front, side or rear for the
side that is blinking fast. If both sides are blinking fast... then its a different problem. Try the hazards... if they blink normal, then its a bulb or a short.

I'm pretty sure your turn signal light bulb (weither it's front or back) is shot. cause my Accord's ate 2 or 3 turn signal bulbs. and it starts blinking quick. the nice thing about hondas(i'm pretty sure it this way with Acuras) it's simple to change the tail light bulbs(it maybe takes 10 mins if your not rushing)(i did one in my college parking lot)(it doesn't take any tools just your hands) i don't remember the exact amount I paid for 2 turn signal bulbs (cause their sold in a "2 pack") at Auto Zone was somewere between 7 and 10 bucks with tax. so there not real expensive.

Ok, my hazzards blink at normal speed. I checked all my bulbs, are are working. If my headlights are off and i use the turn signals, they still blink fast, but the fronts blink bright enough to notice that im turning. But if i have the headlights on, hence, the turn signal lamps are on, and then hit the turn signal, the second filiment in that bulb is barely blinking, so it hardly looks like my turn signal is on from the front. Any of this make sense?
I think its the apc bulb, so are there PIAA bulbs that are not blue colored (clear), but are super white in 1157 and 168 sizes? I cant seem to find em in that style.
