Well, in response to my own question about double time on the flashers. I quess I should have used the Google search at the DMCNEWS site. Heres what I found and it worked. From: James Espey, mikasa@xxxx Date: Wed, 10 Jul 1996 22:39:10 -0400 (EDT) Subject: Fast turn signal A few weeks ago I posted a message about my "blankety-blank" blinker. All the bulbs were good, flasher unit was good, and I performed the "nut & bolt" tail light modification, still the left turn signal blinked twice as fast as the left. I took aprt the front turn signal housing and socket. A little corroded, but not bad, but I cleaned it out anyway. No luck. The more aI played with it I noticed that if I held the bulb "just right", it would work fine. It was too loose in the socket, it appeared. I had the factory original bulbs, so I know the bulb was right for the application. Too make along story short, I very slightly squeezed the socket at the open end with a pair of pliers, making it VERY SLIGHTLY oval shaped. The bulb fits snugly, but is easily removable and it works GREAT again. Probably not the "right" way to fix it, but it works.
