im still having an electrical issue
last week i had the wrong turn signal bulbs in my headlights so i replaced em with 1157's. Now my left turn signals still blinks a whole lot faster than my right. what else could be the prob?

Since the other side works fine, the blinker relay is fine.... so the only way that's possible is if the bulbs do not draw enough power.
Is one of the bulbs an LED bulb or something?

Blinker speed is regulated by resistance in the circuit... so either one of the bulbs is the wrong bulb, or is burned out. Try swapping bulbs out/around and you'll figure out which one it is...
oh... oh yeah... have you checked the blinker fluid?
