Blinker Issue

Ok so last night I got the fast clicking noise that signaled the demise of a turn signal. i checked the rear and noticed my rear driver blinker was out. No problem, I've got spare bulbs, its a 10 min fix right? So I'm driving home and the clicking stops... my light works again. Then this morning its out, but I need to drive to school anyway, and mid drive (about 15 mins) its working again. Of course I'm just going to try changing the bulb when I get a chance, but could this be an electrical issue?

Bulbs can go intermittent, the filament breaks and bounces around inside the bulb. Hit a little bump with power applied and it can "stick" back on.....sometimes for a few seconds, sometimes not at all.

Change it out, cheap protection against a ticket or worse.....

If all else fails could be the wiring or a dying fuse.
