Default Signals messed up

I was just driving with no problems at all, then when I signal left the blinker flashes like a mofo! The right signal is fine. I step out and take a look outside, the left signal's blinking very rapidly for no reason. My front left bulb blew, could that be why the rear one's blinking so rapidly?

That's exactly why. The relay works on resistance, since there's only one bulb there, the impedence is cut in half.

so the blinker goes twice as fast when there's half the resistance.

replace your bulb... normal blinking again... :thumbup:
