740 wagon turn signal confussion
I recently bought new front turn signal lenses on replaced both of my old units. The one on the pass side had an amber and the driver side had a clear bulb with one of the two filaments out. in the condition they were in the blinkers worked normally (the out filament was the running light)
I recently replaced the drivers side blinker with a amber bulb, used dielectric grease, kept my oily fingers off the glass ect and it was fine for maybe a week. Now however it has developed the fast blink on the drivers side which is associated with an out blinker bulb so I figured it must be the rear now so I checked the rear and its good blinking as it should (also the other filament is good as I checked that. So then I thought great somehow my brand new bulb is toast (good thing it came with two) so I swing around to the front to check the front drivers side blinker and ITS WORKING FINE. so for some reason I have the fast blink which I thought means that the blinker bulb is burnt out however no bulb is burnt out.
My only other thought is it may be a relay however I would think that any relay would be associated with both the driver and passenger side and the pass side works properly.
Any help is appreciated
