I have a similar problem with my 2007. The front passenger side signal quit, and changing the bulb didn't help. Checking for power with a VOM at the socket showed no voltage with the signal on. The socket and wiring look clean and good. Not sure what's next.

I had this EXACT same problem. Whenever I went to change the light bulb, the act of simply jiggling or bending the wire connect to the socket "just so" would tend to make it work fine again. I never actually changed the bulb since each time I attempted to, I discovered it would start working again. I finally brought it into the shop and asked them to figure it out. They literally just changed the bulb--and the problem just went away.

Having this problem as well. Changed the bulb and I still get the fast blink. It's my front passenger side, DRL /turn combo (2013). Will have to look more in depth this weekend when I have more time.

Did you ever find a solution? i'm having the same issue with my rear right signal - 2007 Sport. I've tried the bulbs, nada. Swapped sides - all okay. Tried a tester - tester blinks fast when on turn signal, fine when on hazard. Makes me think it's the signal switch causing the issue. Hmmmm

Yeah, it was a bad bulb. I was using the wrong bulb at the time when I tried to fix it.

Nowhere do I claim to be smart.

ABS and turn signal
So I've been having a problem with my left turn signal as well, but it involves other elements. On random occasions I'll be driving and my ABS light comes on. When this happens it doesn't affect my turn signal until I apply pressure to the breaks. When I put the breaks on, my blinker starts going very fast. I've checked the bulbs and they are working. Could it be just a fuse or something worse? Any help is much appreciate!
I have a 2000 Limited

Every 6 months I spray Contact Cleaner in the connector about a foot away from the light bulb sockets. This usually clears any fast blinking. The last time I needed to use bulb grease on the actual light bulb base.

One Rainy night and lost the right signal again. No water in the headlight. Next day working, should I just order a new harness??

If the bulb is dead the green arrow blinks faster. Something to do with the resistance in the circuit I think. Maybe the filament is broken but reconnects sometimes when the two ends touch. Replace the bulb.

New bulb works most of the time. Guessing it is the socket or harness from other threads. ???

I asked my dealership about this. Home, I can't find a relay for the turn signal, found the fuses only. There has got to be a relay someplace, marked 'turn signal'?? It doesn't look like the turn signal has a replaceable socket.

well they said to look for an old school round flasher unit somewhere under the dash. anyone seen one? I looked for a minute with a flashlight, no luck. I know, turn on the signal and listen for it. soon.
