I have a 00' Gsr and my blinker is doing some crazy things...
The left (driver side) front and rear blinks fine,
But on the right, it blinks really fast. Also, the rear is
blinking, but the front just stays on. (all bulbs work)
I've never messed with any lights on my car....
Can someone give me an idea of what is going on here???

usually when it blinks really fast it means that you have a light out somewhere, but I don't know what to tell ya

I am going to guess, that if it is the daul filament type of turn signal (where it is on all the time (parking lights) and blinks brighter when the turn signal is blinking, like a 92-95 Civic) then the higher wattage filament, the part that blinks and creates the turn signal, is most likely burnt out. When this burns out, the signal not burnt out on that side (and the indicator on the dash) blinks rapidly to let you know a signal is burnt out. The way to fix this is to simply replace the bulb with the burnt out filament.

Check the fuse. I have a 2000 accord and my headlight was all of the sudden acting really messed up, I checked all of the bulbs to make sure that it wasn't screwed up and they weren't so I checked the fuse and there was the problem... a blown fuse. So again, check the fuse.

Well not really. I haven't had the time to look at it yet, and I have no knowledge in lighting hehe thats why I wanted some ideas of what might be happening.
But anyways....the problem you described sounds a lot like what's happening with my car...and, I think you're right.
So....if you could explain in depth how to fix it, it would really help man.
-thanks!
