Default Twitchy turn signal light

Left turn signal light in my dash has gone berzerk. It blinks erratically, at times extremely fast, and at times not at all. Also the brake light is constantly on, and all of my brake lights are okay. I've never messed with any of the wiring in the dash, so I'm certain it wasn't I that messed it up.

Thx in advance.

No sir. nothing has been done inside the dash at all. I'm relatively unfamiliar with the dash electronics, I know of only the stuff I need for my system.

LMAO luv ur homepage mickey mouse picture. I might steal it and print it out on lil business cards.

or are u talkin about the headlight/taillight bulbs? *turns brain on* the bulbs have been replaced cuz of my system, but with just regular bulbs u get from a local parts store. My system causes my vehicle to go through bulbs like underwear.

did you go by the exact # or just have one of the employees pick out the bulb

the reason is the bulbs might look the saem but they have different specs which would throw the brake light and the blinker
