turn signal problem

i have a 03 x-type with a turn signal problem that knocks out brake lights and makes the signal go faster. it shows the bulb out light on dash but no bulbs out. just turn sig works fine with out brake pedal depressed. also have notice when at night i have the lights on turn sig dims the dash lights and is slow blinking. i checked grounds and switches and wires. i was told the GECM modual had a recall but im not on the vin recall list. i still think its the modual but want to make sure thats it and not someting im missing that someone else found the fix. please help. thanks for reading this. bobby
