Question Turn signal blinker or bulbs?

My blinkers started to act kinda weird. Yesterday they were blinking really fast. This morning they did the same but this time the blinking is more like a flicker and they dont stay on. Any ideas before I start taking the dash apart?

Replace the flasher it is under the bolster panel next to steering coulmn in front of where your right knee would be as if sitting in the seat.

If both sides do the same thing, it's probably the flasher. If only one side has the problem, it is either a bulb or a bad socket on the side that doesn't work. Turn on the hazard flashers (they use a different flasher) and walk around the car looking for the light that doesn't work.
