which one was blinking....the front or the rear. if the front was blinking fast...replace the rear bulb. And if the rear one was blinking fast...replace the front bulb. If not sure...replace both

If both bulbs are fine AND your hazard lights blink normally... Turn-Signal relay is fried. Just replace it, on this car, I dunno where it is, consult the helms, it's probably behind the dash cluster. On my VW, I simply had to pull out the hazard switch and replace it with a new one (the whole unit controls the car's signals).

it sounds to me like you have a loose conection with one of your bulbs... the only thing that sucks about trying to change out a coner bulb is that you have take off the bumper inorder to get to it.

Turn single relay is under the drivers side dash at the back of the fuse box. It just pulls right out. The new one pushes right in. I know I had a hyper blinker in my car last year. This is where the new relay went. It just replaced the factory one. Really easy to replace.

Left side turn signal blinking fast, sounds like a burned out bulb to me. Turn on the left side signal. check to see which one doesn't work, and replace that bulb. Good luck.

Hey, it's better than expected, simply replace the bulb. At least it is not your relay.
Since the 1157 is a dual filament bulb, your steady filament is working but not the blinking filament. I recently just picked up a bulb for $0.96 at the dealer.
