Blinker Question

So I noticed my left blinker was blinking faster than my right blinker and tonight I decided to take a look from the outside. My left blinker from the rear is not blinking but it blinks fast on the front. My right blinker is blinking at normal rate and both back and front are blinking. What could be the cause of this?

means either your left rear blinker is not plugged in anymore, or it has burned out. a fast blinking bulb is a notification of a problem.

well i havent messed with the bulb so most likely it would have to be burned out is there a reason for it to burn out so quick i've had the car for a full year as of june. what would be the life span of the bulb?

dont know about the life span. its possible it was just not the best bulb. I would go and push on the connector, just to make sure it isn't loose. If that doesn't work then just go out and get a replacement. Make sure you don't touch the bulb with your bare hands... the oil from your hands will stay on the bulb which will heat up super hot and burn out.
