'96 850 GLT wagon turn signals acting up

Post by sandyegg »

Hi!
My '96 850GLT wagon's turn signals are acting up (148,000 miles). The left-turn signal seems to work normally, but the right-turn indicator blinks two to three time faster than it used to. Anyone have any ideas about what's causing this?
Thanks.

Bulb out or bad ground in one of the sockets.

I've had bulbs that still lit, but lit up the bulb out indicator on the dash.
