Does anyone know how to speed up the blinkers/turn signals?

upgrade the blinker fluid. the oem blinker fluid is weak compared to some of the stuff you can get aftermarket.

What? Huh? No That's just not rig.....Whaaaaat? I know that while I played around in my younger years I let a lot of technology pass me by but "Blinker Fluid" Say it aint so Blue, Say it aint so. OK explain in 20 words or less, What is blinker fluid? Or did I just fall into a world wide on the internet joke right here in front of God and everybody?

Bwhahaha.
It's just a joke.

"SpeedySolara" You can just use LED's for either the front or rear turn signals.
I have some that i don't use at all.
They're white LED's.

Why do you want to increase the speed? Are yours messed up?

But it's soooooooo freakin funny.
No really...check out the sites for installing the fluid and where to buy it.
Reminds me of some original Saturday Night Live stuff. Yes I was there the first night it aired.

to blink fast...change the resistor for a less resistent one then you'll simulate perfectly a broken bulb (no resistence) and you can probably get a warning from the police to fix it !

to speed up the blinker, u need to lower the resistance on the line. So basically get a LED bulb for ur blinkers and if u dont want them blinking that fast after u install the LED bulbs, u can slowly adjust the blinking pattern by installing small OHM resistors on the line. Do it in .5 ohms.
