Blinkers flashing fast

[Dmaan87]

I have a 1995 gen 2 SHO with HID that someone else installed and when I bought the car the flashers blinked fast. I replaced several bulbs and still have the same issue. The only difference is now sometimes the right side does not blink at all. I have not replaced the multifunction switch or been able to locate the flasher relay. HELP PLEASE!!!!

the flasher is hard to find, kind of up on top of the fuse box that is under the dash on the left side of the steering column. It is a pain to find... There is an electronic flasher that some guys have used to make the LEDs cycle at a proper rate, but I don't recall the part # - you should find it with a search.

Yeah, what he said. The old style flasher relays depended on a bi-metallic strip to heat up to act as a timer. The new style uses an electronic timer. If you don't have any bulbs burnt out, the existing flasher unit is probably just the wrong one.

Any ideas where I can find an electric controlled one??

Almost all of the newer ones are electronically timed. Do you have bulbs missing or burnt out?

No I literally changed every single bulb because that was my initial thought. I'll change the flasher relay out and see what happens.
