06 Dakota Rt rear blinker
The right rear turn signal does not blink. Whenever I make a right turn I get a fast blinking sound. The front works fine, except it flashes quickly. The rear light does turn on when the headlights or brakes are on but does not blink. Same when the hazards are turned on. The other 3 lights work with the hazards, but not the right rear. I replaced the bulb, and the same thing happens. Actually I replaced it twice, since the new bulb comes in a twin pack. Any help is appreciated

most likely your bulb is about to go out fully, most likely need to replace the one in the rear, should replace all of them at the same time.
check your bulb number im almost poisitive it should be a 3157, replace all your bulbs first and you should be golden, like 3 bucks a set at your local autoparts store, unless you want LED's.

Welcome aboard. I would tend to lean to the fact of it being a bulb as well and would also like to know what is the number bulb you used to replace the one that was not working?

Does the.new bulb ever work when you install it? The others blink faster because there is less resistance in the circuit. So its gotta be something with that socket or bulb type. You could switch the tail lights around just to test to see if its not in the wireing or canbus, if your other side works all hooked up then it must be the socket or bulb type.
