Then I would defer back to the bulbs.

Absolutely 100% sure that the bulbs (which are OEM halogen) are all illuminating when you use the turn signal and hazards?

Also, what year is this? I only ask because the 03-04's use a single filament bulb for the turn signal, whule the 05-06 use dual filament. Maybe that has something to do with it.

If so, I might convince myself to swap bulbs to the other side and see if the problem changes sd

By "clock spring" you must be referring to the "spiral cable" behind the steering wheel? Nothing to do with turn indicators. The spiral cable also operates your horn, cruise control buttons, phone controls, and driver airbag. So if it completely failed the SRS system would be flashing lights at you and throwing error codes.

Another idea ... sometimes bulbs from different manufacturers or of incorrect wattage can throw things out of balance. Check your 4-way flashers again to make sure all corners are blinking and try to determine if they are the same brightness.

Just a guess...

What year is your car so we can look up the OEM bulb?

Oh duh, just saw your signature. '04 and '04.5 have 21w single-filament incandescent turn signal lamps, front is amber and rear is clear. I'm sure you know that already... Hyperblink should only happen if one is burned out, not the right wattage, or if the circuit is incorrectly "loaded" with an LED lamp with no resistor.

Well mine is an 05.. I'll check my four ways when I return home again. Thanks for the input. I was also thinking maybe a light is getting ready to go out. I don't drive my car a whole a lot a don't use the signal that is hyper blinking consistently.

Sorry, getting my posts crossed.....
Tyke420, on your '05 the front turn signal and parking lamp are the same two-filiment bulb 21/5w. The rears are single filament 21w bulbs. A couple examples...

Thanks for that, I just realized, the previous owner did put two LED strips in the front headlights.... Nothing dramatic, but I just realized that. I think there LED's anyway, they're barely noticable though... I'll ask him when I get a chance... I'm assuming that's where my problem is now that I think of it... They were working fine for quite sometime though after I bought the car.... Who knows, I'll ask him some questions, he's a good guy......

Depending on how they are wired, that might be your cause.
