Re: blinkers

I would guess that the blinker doesn't have a good ground path.  Can you 
measure the resistance from the brown wire on the light to the chassis?  
Probably there is some corrosion on the ground wire which is adding 
resistance to the circuit which is causing less current to flow through the 
bulb which is not loading the relay properly and causing it to cycle 
quicker.  How'd you like that sentence?  :)

I noticed that my passenger side blinkers were going quicker than the
driver's side.  So I checked the brightness, and noticed that the front
passaneger one was dimmer.  So tonight I replaced the bulb, hoping that
would work.  Nope.  It's still dim comparatively.  So is the relay screwed?
Or what else could it be?
