Have you checked the turn signal's relay under the driver's side dash. Sometimes when this goes bad, the lights will appear to flash 'n blink faster than normal.

From my understanding, hyperflash happens when the bulb fails or one of the two elements inside the bulb fails.

Are all the turn signal lamps doing this "flickering" ?
If only one check the bulb and connection. If all, replace the flasher relay.

Sorry for the late reply!

YES!
I recently put LEDs for the signals

Also, do I need a specific part number for the LED resistors?
