Kia turn signal works but blinks fast on right side when parking lights are on

I replaced the turn signal bulbs in the front and back on right side. Turn sig blinks normal speed when light switch is off, but blinks fast when light switch is on. Same thing when just the parking lights are on. Left side is normal.

Turn on park lights and signal on right side and take a good look at the front and rear light , see if one is dimmer than the other this may be due to a bad ground and when the park lights are on and drawing more power it also needs better ground, check the sockets front and rear try wiggling the bulb to see which one is causing the problem

SOURCE: front turning light does not work, i replaced the bulb, and when i turn the truning signal does not turn off.

Sounds like you have a bad ground. Follow the wiring harnesses under the hood and in the trunk, there should be a ground wire going to the chassis or to the body. If they are all clean and tight, you might be looking at a bad light socket.

SOURCE: Left turn signal blinks fast in rear and regular in front

the bulb is blown out. you need to change it. also if the bulb is not blown out or if the blinker still blink fast after you change the bulb then you have a ground problem. just remove that blinker light and check the ground wire on it. if you need to replace it and find a good groun on the car. you should be fine. this is all it is .

SOURCE: Brake light, reverse light and turn signal issues

Hello. The symptoms you are describing are likely due to a poor ground. Temporarily install a new ground wire by securing a piece of copper wire to the frame with a self tapping screw. Use this ground wire along with the hot wire to see if each of these lights works. If it does, trace the ground wire back to the frame, unscrew it and clean up the metal with emery cloth so you reestablish a good ground.

Get the left signal to flash fast then walk around the car to see which light isn't flashing then change the bulb or socket if they all appear to be flashing (front and rear) turn on the right turn signal then look into the front and rear lens and count the number of bulbs flashing, now do the same thing on the left. Many times there's more than 1 bulb in each lamp. I hope this helps. Take care.

1997 Dodge Neon left signal lights work great. Right side blinks very fast.

Has the car been in a fender bender ? check for wiring going to the front and rear lights to see if on has rubbed into a ground wire or the body. ( even if there has been no accident.)

The left signal blinks abnormally fast in the front and it doesn't work at all in the back. The right hand one blinks normally. Any solution for this?

Hello, The fast blinking is a way the car is telling you it has a bad light bulb. So the light bulb in the front is bad and needs to be replaced. Once you replace this bulb your turn signal should return to normal operation. Good luck hope this helps and feel free to ask me any more questions if needed.
