You have a burnt out filament in the rear tail light. There are 2 filaments in each of the rear light bulbs, one is for the taillight and one is for the turn signal. The turn signal filament is burnt out in that bulb. Replace that bulb and it should be fine. The dash directional light blinks fast when a bulb is burnt out to let you know you have a bad bulb. It will go back to normal after a good bulb is put in.

I have a 2000 BMW z3 that the brake light doesn't turn off while running. I've removed the wire off the switch but still on. The right hand signal flashes fast when lights are on.
Usually if my right blinker is flashing fast it means one of my right blinkers is not working either front or back right side. Not sure but I know every vehicle I have ever had was like that. One blinders not working the other flashes fast, on the dash also.
This post he repaired the problem it was the light switch.

My rear brake light is not working, nor is my blinker at the back right. When I put the right turn signal on it blinks really fast, faster than normal, and the front blinker works. I have replaced both...
Normally with the blinker blinking really fast, it's telling you that one of the bulb is blown, front or rear signals. Check your fuse, and fuse relay to see if it would fix the promblem

NO PROBLEM TURN ON THE RIGHT BLINKER THEN WALK AROUND THE CAR MAKE SURE FRONT AND REAR BULBS ARE FLASHING... IF YOU HAVE A BULB OUT YOU WILL NOT OFFER ENOUGH OF A LOAD TO THE FLASHER...

Left rear tail lights/ blinker will not come on
Blinker too fast, the same side blinker light bulb on the front (or back) is burned. Check the fuses for the rear lights. You might have a light bulb filament stuck.

BLINKERS ON 2004 JEEP WRANGLER NOT WORKING PROPERLY
The problem could be the wiring connecting to the lights, you need to check them for bare wires. Look them through for any metal hanging out of the rubber insulation. You may need to get new wiring.
